All I know it is the same company that built the Fantasy and Spirit class ships.

Does anyone remember what the inaugural itinerary was on the Spirit class ships being built in Finland? Reason why I am asking is because I am interested in the new ship in 2020. Hoping there will be some Baltic stops.

The bookings have to open before the end of the year - at least for European sailings, because whoever wins the free Horizon cruise has to book by Dec 31, 2016, per the contest rules.

When will they announce the winner?

I hope Carnival don't get into the Super size ships. Itineraries get boring.

So just a question. When the Carnival Dream was built were there already plans for 3 dream class ships?

Has anyone heard if there is going to be a Vista 3? I know the Carnival Corp. has 8 or 9 ships on order but not sure if one of them is going to be a 3rd Vista class.

I was told by a future cruise director that they are in the works for combining the loyalty programs. But he said not to expect it for a couple years. That was on my 2015 cruise.

wooohooo!!!! Single digit dance for the carnival vista! !!!!! I can't wait.

I think the Havana Caribana rooms have a hammock on there deck?

Plus we really don't know how old these pictures are.

The crew isn't arriving to April. Someone on my roll call just got off the Breeze and he was talking to an entertainer which got a 1 year contract on the Vista. And as far as the staff are aware is that the Vista will be done on time. That being said it still doesn't mean they are keeping all the staff in the loop.

this was posted on cruisehive, but it is not on the carnival site yet.

Also any update on sea trials? Carnival site still says Jan 2016.

They are saying at the end of March now.

Or send Breeze to the West Coast. Hey I can dream, can't I?

They would have to do something with the check in area if Long Beach was to get a Dream Class. Getting on and off the Miracle was a huge mess. At least the days we were there anyways.

It's already been announced that the Miracle and Splendor are going to Asia. And I dare say the Vista's sister ship in 2018 will be heading that way.

Any idea when the itineraries will be out?

How would you know when it's ready for sea trials based on this pic?

Still missing life boats.

Still looks a long way from being ready for Sea Trials. Anyone hear anything new?

Who would play such a cruel trick. Lol

That's the Breeze with the name Vista photoshopped in. If it was the Vista, you'd be able to see the SkyRide track in front of the whale tale.

Well I'm sorry but you can see the blue track in front of the whale tail.

I am guessing the pictures aren't up to date. The ship yard Facebook is even saying it is still on schedule.

I hate the new Web site.

Fingers crosse. Let's hope Carnival have learned a thing or too after what happened with the Sunshine.

Sunshine was late because of vandalism.

Oh okay. The staff are supposed to be there in March so maybe that's when they will start.

If you don't have the bubbles package and you buy a pop do you get the whole can or do they just fill the glass like they do with bubbles?

How much does it cost to buy a pop on board Carnival. I'm trying to figure out how many pops I would have to drink for it to pay for itself.
