Carnival Jubilee sfoggia l’iconico “imbuto alato”
Allestimento in corso per la nuova nave di classe Excel presso il cantiere navale in Germania
Sono iniziati i lavori per installare le caratteristiche che rendono Carnival Jubilee un vero membro della flotta “Fun Ship” e per dare il via a questa nuova fase di costruzione, il suo fumaiolo alato sinonimo del marchio Carnival Cruise Line ora adorna la nave.
Martedì, le gru hanno abbassato la parte superiore dell’imbuto in cima al Carnival Jubilee, che è attraccato accanto al molo di allestimento presso Meyer Werft a Papenburg, in Germania. L’incoronazione della nave è avvenuta pochi giorni dopo che è entrata in acqua per la prima volta nel suo galleggiante fuori dal bacino di carenaggio coperto del cantiere navale e ha completato con successo una serie di test sui suoi propulsori di prua e stabilizzatori.
CARNIVAL JUBILEE NOW SPORTING ICONIC WINGED FUNNEL
Outfitting Underway for New Excel-Class Ship at Shipyard in Germany
MIAMI – July 26, 2023 – Work has begun to install the features that make Carnival Jubilee a true member of the “Fun Ship” fleet, and to kick off this next phase of construction, its winged funnel synonymous with the Carnival Cruise Line brand now adorns the ship.
On Tuesday, cranes lowered the top of the funnel in place atop Carnival Jubilee, which is docked alongside the outfitting pier at Meyer Werft in Papenburg, Germany. The ship’s crowning took place just a few days after it first hit the water in its float out from the shipyard’s covered dry dock and successfully completed a series of tests on its bow thrusters and stabilizers.
“Seeing Carnival Jubilee sport the Carnival funnel, the quintessential symbol she’s a ship made for fun, is a gratifying milestone that builds on the excitement after just watching her float out and reveal another important symbol – the Texas star on her bow that signals her Texas pride,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line.
Construction continues now as shipbuilding crews outfit Carnival’s next new ship with groundbreaking features already thrilling guests on board Excel-class sister ships Mardi Gras and Carnival Celebration – including BOLT: The Ultimate Seacoaster encircling Carnival Jubilee’s new funnel. Inside, the ship will feature popular dining, including the third Emeril’s restaurant at sea – Emeril’s Bistro 717, and all-new fun, unique and immersive ocean-themed experiences in two new zones: Currents and The Shores.
Carnival Jubilee is set to start cruising from her homeport of Galveston on Dec. 23, 2023, sailing year-round Western Caribbean itineraries with stops in Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico, as well as Mahogany Bay (Roatan). To see sailings currently open for sale, visit Carnival.com here.
