THE steel cutting ceremony for the third Vista class cruise ship for Carnival Cruise Line took place last week at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Marghera, Italy.
To be delivered in 2019, the yet-to-be-named vessel will be a sister ship of Carnival Vista, and Carnival Horizon, which is also under construction in Marghera with delivery slated for the beginning of 2018.
The 323m ship will have 1,987 passenger cabins and capacity for 3,934 passengers.
In keeping with the Vista class, the new addition will feature the Havana Area, a private space exclusively available for guests in select cabins featuring open bars and an infinity pool.
