Carnival Cruises recently announced that they will be deploying their second year round ship to New Orleans in August 2007.
The Cruise ship “Triumph” carries 2,758 passengers and will offer 7 day Caribbean vacations out of the Port of New Orleans. This will be the largest ship to service this port and her maiden voyage is set for September 2, 2007.
“The Port of New Orleans has been a valued business partner for Carnival for more than a decade and we’re extremely pleased to deploy the Carnival Triumph and Fantasy to that port. Not only does basing these ships in New Orleans offer consumers two exciting ‘Fun Ship’ vacation choices, it is also indicative of the continued economic recovery of this vitally important cruising region,” said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO.
Fantasy is a 2,056 passenger cruiseliner that offers 4, 5 and 7 day cruises to the western Caribbean beginning October 26, 2006.
