Carnival Corporation's fleet welcomes four new ships

Carnival Corporation's global cruise brands will count four extra ships in 2016 to meet the company's growing demand for cruise holidays

The additional cruise ships will complement the industry-leading Carnival Corporation’s fleet in 2016. Carnival Vista, ms Koningsdam, AIDAprima and Seabourn Encore will join the existing fleet of 99 ships from April to December 2016.

The technologically advanced ships are expected to revolutionize luxury cruising and also expand the already existing customers' demand for premium services.

Arnold Donald, chief executive at Carnival Corporation commented:

“As we execute our fleet enhancement plan - which includes a long-term strategy for bringing highly efficient, state-of-the-art ships to market and elevating the overall cruise experience, we are excited about seeing these new ships come to life this year.

“With each new ship we introduce, we generate new levels of excitement it creates for our guests and the industry.

“It also supports our goal to provide the best possible vacation experience at a value that land-based vacations cannot match.

“In the end, with our existing and new ships, our focus is for our guests to come away from a cruise vacation having had a great time and looking forward to going on another cruise.”

“We also remain focused on managing our fleet capacity in a responsible way by delivering and refurbishing ships that are innovative and efficient, while we phase out some of our existing ships – all designed to reinvigorate the options available to travelers looking to explore the more than 700 destinations we visit around the world.”

13 more ships are scheduled to be delivered to Carnival Corporation until 2020, so that the company could provide its guests luxurious cruise vacations in every corner of the globe.
