Is Carnival Australia massaging the truth when it comes to "doubling" its Australian fleet in 2025? Click here to learn about the changes to Pacific Adventure and Encounter for March 2025: https://youtu.be/j2SXC7bWuWk Carnival Cruise Line's new Double the Fun campaign is making waves, but does it truly deliver what it promises? In this video, I break down the real impact of Carnival's upcoming changes as they absorb P&O Australia's Pacific Adventure and Encounter into their fleet. While the fleet size is technically doubling, the reality for Australian cruisers tells a different story. From reduced capacity and fewer home ports to limited onboard experiences, I uncover the truth behind the marketing spin. Plus, I'll explore the broader challenges facing Australia's cruise industry, including port access issues, regulatory hurdles, and rising fares driven by declining local capacity. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 🛳️ My website hosts one of the world's most powerful cruise search engines where you can research and even book your next cruise or land holiday.
