Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival loves recycling old ship names for a few practical (and strategic) reasons:

Carnival says that they rename these ships, right, because they want to bring back a nostalgic feel with a bigger and a better layout

It's easier just to use reuse and same name. Hey, let's do this. The Jubilee was cute when they did it the first time, but now it just to me it just feels lazy.

It's money and it's time in my opinion and a little bit of laziness.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book early and use saver fares to get credits if prices drop.
✓Consider the ship's layout and flow of people when choosing a cruise.
✓Don't cruise for the name; focus on the experience and amenities.
