Multi-million-dollar dry dock for Carnival Fascination
Carnival Fascination will undergo an extensive multi-million-dollar dry dock in February.
It will take place in Freeport, The Bahamas, before the ship resumes its year-round schedule of seven-day southern Caribbean cruises from San Juan, Puerto Rico, on February 18.
New food and beverage options will be introduced, including a burger joint, Mexican eatery, a rum bar and tequila bar – all poolside.
There will also be a new fast-food sushi bar and a vintage-themed cocktail ‘pharmacy’ where guests can custom-make cocktails.
Carnival Fascination’s year-round schedule from San Juan encompasses week-long sailings to five Caribbean islands – St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Kitts, St. Thomas and St. Maarten.
