Carnival Triumph to undergo two-month makeover

Wednesday, 31 Jul, 2018 0

Carnival Cruise Line has revealed plans for a $200 million full ship makeover for Carnival Triumph in the spring of 2019, after which it will be renamed Carnival Sunrise.

The two-month-long refurbishment will take place in Cadiz in Spain, starting on March 1 and will include new food and drinks outlets, enhanced entertainment and updates to all staterooms.

Carnival Sunrise will re-enter service with a series of five- to seven-day cruises from Norfolk, Virginia, beginning on April 29, followed by a summer schedule of four- to 14-day departures from New York beginning on May 23, after which she will move to Florida’s Fort Lauderdale for the winter.

"The introduction of Carnival Sunrise will provide our guests with an array of exciting dining, bar and entertainment choices. The new Carnival Sunrise is part of our multi-billion-dollar ship enhancement programme that is transforming our fleet on an unprecedented scale," said president Christine Duffy.

Carnival Sunrise enhancements include the redesign of two luxury Captain’s Suites adjacent to the navigational bridge offering floor-to-ceiling windows and extended balcony grand suites.

Other improvements include an extended spa, new Italian, steak and sushi restaurants, an adult-only retreat and a suspended ropes course.
