Creator's Key Takeaways
I am talking about even the crew. On the Carnival Panorama, there is almost 1,450 crew members and none of them, almost none of them will get to see this area.
This is the engine control room or ECR. This is the heart of the ship where there is someone 24 hours a day.
This ship is a floating power plant. The engines do not just move us forward. They are generators that produce electricity for air conditioning, kitchen galleys, lights in your cabin, and even how water moves around the ship.
All combined, there are five engines generating more than 62 megawatts of power. To put that into perspective, that's over 83,000 horsepower.

Go behind the scenes on the Carnival Panorama and see one of the most restricted areas of the entire cruise ship: the engine control room and massive engine spaces that most guests — and even most crew members — never get to visit. In this exclusive Carnival Panorama tour, I got special access to the hidden systems that keep this floating city running, including the engine control room, ship power systems, water treatment, air conditioning, stabilizers, fire protection systems, and the massive diesel engines that help power everything from your cabin lights to the casino, shows, kitchens, air conditioning, and more. Most cruisers only see the fun side of a Carnival cruise: the food, pools, entertainment, cabins, and ports. But underneath all of that is an incredible world of engineering that makes your cruise vacation possible. Carnival Panorama has thousands of guests and crew onboard, and it takes a huge behind-the-scenes operation to keep everything moving, powered, cooled, cleaned, and safe. If you’ve ever wondered how a cruise ship works, where cruise ship water comes from, how the engines power the ship, what the engine control room looks like, or what happens in the areas guests never get to see, this video gives you a rare look inside.
