Carnival Cruise Line’s newest ship, Carnival Jubilee, has successfully completed its first series of sea trials.
The ship is one milestone closer to her Caribbean cruise debut from Galveston, Tex. on December 23.
Carnival Jubilee’s first round of sea trials successfully completed on November 14, led by a full contingent of officers, technicians and engineers on board for the full testing of systems.
“Our all-new Carnival Jubilee performed extremely well through each test. Now shortly, we’ll start cruising,” Captain Andrea Catalani said.
Carnival Jubilee is the first Carnival ship to be built in Germany.
Jubilee will officially be handed over by shipbuilder Meyer Werft in Papenburg on December 4.
The ship will feature unique concepts such as the Dr.Inks, Ph.D Bar.
Jubilee will be the cruise line’s third ship to be powered by a Liquefied Natural Gas propulsion system.
Landmark features include top-deck rollercoaster BOLT: The Ultimate Seacoaster, and guest-favorites like Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse, and Shaquille O’Neal’s Big Chicken restaurant.
Carnival Jubilee will sail year-round Caribbean cruises from Galveston to Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mahogany Bay (Roatan) and more.
