thecruiserofships Posted August 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 5, 2018 The Carnival Triumph was one of my favorite ships and I was a bit disappointed to hear the ship will receive a name change following the big upcoming dry-dock. When I saw Carnival's official press release I opened a copy of the Carnival Sunrise's deck plan and a copy of the Carnival Triumph's to compare the deck plan's side by side. Although many areas are being changed due to the addition of several features, the ship's overall layout will continue to remain the same. If you would like to read my comparison it is posted on my personal cruise blog: http://www.embarkandaway.com/general-cruise-blog/carnival-sunrise-vs-carnival-triumph-comparing-the-renovated-ship I tried to make this comparison as detailed as possible because I am personally curious about every little change that will occur to the ship. Unfortunately, we don't have renderings of the interior yet, but these will probably be available when the interactive deck plan is posted by Carnival. Hope this helps!

thecruiserofships Posted August 5, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Thanks for the info. We love the Triumph too. Where will it's home port be after the renovations? The ship's homeport starting in April 2019 will be Norfolk, but the ship will reposition to New York in later May 2019. In October 2019, the ship will reposition again to Ft. Lauderdale.

mj Posted August 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Thanks for sharing that info. The Triumph was one of my earliest sailings on Carnival and got me hooked on cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyFan33579 Posted August 5, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Good camparison. Disappointed they aren’t duplicating the Sunshine Serenity area, which is easily the best one IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Sunshine's Serenity concept as well, but I think they didn't want to change the ship's structure too much because that would have added more time to the dry-dock.

A&Jfamily Posted August 11, 2018 #11 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I like the Sunshine's Serenity concept as well, but I think they didn't want to change the ship's structure too much because that would have added more time to the dry-dock. I think this dry dock is the same length as what they used to covert the Sunshjne. They have just made different choices. What is really interesting is a deck by deck comparison between the Sunshine and Sunrise and they are pretty different....

A.S. Posted August 12, 2018 #12 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Also disappointed that they couldn't do something with that buffet set up. Not good. Plus Ocean Plaza would have been nice on deck 5. We loved the new Sunshine, not so sure about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakesnana Posted August 12, 2018 #13 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Also noticed that when they finish people will have to walk right down the middle of the casino to get from forward to aft on deck 5 rather than along the side. I see many people being upset about having to walk right through all of the smoke. I didn't like this design concept on other ships and I don't like it here. It's also strange to see kids "in the casino", but they are just using the walkway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyg11 Posted August 12, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Man, Triumph had the biggest weight room and fitness area of any Carnival ship I had been on. And it’s getting cut nearly in half. So disappointing... Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwegian newest ship (breakaway,getaway, escape,etc) biggest complaint is about the casino smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
