Carnival Cruise Lines is a British-American owned cruise line, based in Doral, Florida, a suburb of Miami in the United States. Originally an independent company founded in 1972 by Ted Arison, the company is now one of ten cruise ship brands owned and operated by Carnival Corporation & plc. The company has the largest fleet in the group, with 24 vessels currently in operation that account for 21.1% of the worldwide market share. Executive control of the company is provided by the North American division of Carnival Corporation, headquartered in Doral, Florida.

Carnival was a pioneer in the concept of shorter, less expensive cruises. Its ships are known for their Las Vegas-style decor and entertainment. The line calls its ships The Fun Ships, and there are a wide range of activities offered on board. Its trademark is the funnel, which is red, white and blue and shaped like a whale's tail. The mascot for Carnival is "Fun Ship Freddy", a character in the shape of Carnival's distinctive funnel.

In 1996 the Carnival Destiny of 101,000 GT became the largest passenger ship in the world at the time. In 2004, Carnival Corporation ordered for a development program for Carnival's new ships, which was called the Pinnacle Project, which calls for a 200,000-GT prototype, which would have been the world's largest cruise ship. As of 2009, the latest and largest ship in the Carnival fleet is the Carnival Dream, a new 128,000 GT ship. The Carnival Dream entered service on 21 September 2009. After several voyages in the Mediterranean she is set to offer weekly Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral from 5 December 2009. A sister ship, the Carnival Magic, debuted on May 1, 2011. On December 1, 2009 it was announced that Carnival placed an order for a third Dream-class vessel. It entered service in June 2012 and is homeported in Miami. On May 10, 2010, Carnival selected a name for their new Dream-class vessel in 2012; the Carnival Breeze. On 26 October 2012, it was announced that Carnival had ordered a brand new ship for their Carnival Cruise Lines brand. This ship will be built by Fincantieri and will be the largest ship they have ever built. It will also be the first of a brand new class of ship with a passenger capacity of 4000 and a displacement of 135,000 tons. It is scheduled to be delivered in the Winter of 2016, nearly four years after the Carnival Breeze entered service.

Hurricane Katrina charters

Three of the Carnival cruise ships were chartered by the United States government for six months to serve as temporary housing in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The Holiday was originally docked in Mobile, Alabama, and later Pascagoula, Mississippi, and the Ecstasy and Sensation were docked at New Orleans, Louisiana. The six-month contract cost $236 million. The contract was widely criticized because the vessels were never fully utilized, and Carnival received more money than it would have earned by using the ships in their normal rotation.

Notes

• Two more Triumph-class ships sail for Carnival's sister company Costa Cruises, the Costa Fortuna and the Costa Magica.
• The Carnival Destiny was built with two fewer decks than the rest of the Triumph-class ships.
• Two more Spirit-class ships sail for Carnival's sister company Costa Cruises, the Costa Atlantica and the Costa Mediterranea.
• The Conquest-class is based on the overall design of the Destiny-class, but are longer. Because of the additional length, the Conquest class has expanded facilities compared to the Destiny class. Not all ships have a reservations-only restaurant. The Carnival Conquest, Carnival Glory, Carnival Valor, Carnival Liberty and the Carnival Freedom, slightly differ from the rest of the fleet because they have Carnival's Seaside Theater installed by the main pool on the lido deck. The Destiny-class ships, Carnival Destiny, Carnival Triumph and Carnival Victory also have one installed.The Carnival Splendor and the Dream-class ships, Carnival Dream, Carnival Magic' and Carnival Breeze were built with the Seaside Theater.
• The Carnival Splendor offers facilities other ships do not have. This is because the ship was originally designed for Carnival's sister company Costa Cruises. Costa Cruises has three sister ships to the Carnival Splendor, the Costa Concordia, the Costa Serena, and the Costa Pacifica. The inaugural voyage for the Carnival Splendor was on 2 July 2008 from Genoa, Italy to Dover, England.
• On 3 April 2008 Micky Arison, the chairman of Carnival Corporation & plc, stated that due to the low value of the US dollar, inflation and high shipbuilding costs, the company would not be ordering any new ships for their US-based brands (Carnival, Princess Cruises and Holland America Line) until the economic situation improves. Carnival Corporation has since ordered no fewer than five ships for the American market: three for Carnival and two for Princess.

Accidents and incidents

Carnival Ecstasy laundry room fire

On the afternoon of July 20, 1998, MS Ecstasy departed the Port of Miami, Florida, when a fire started in the main laundry room shortly after 17:00. As the Ecstasy attempted to reach an anchorage north of the Miami sea buoy, the vessel lost propulsion power and steering and began to drift.

Carnival Tropicale engine room fire

On September 19, 1999, the Carnival Tropicale's engine room caught fire en route from Cozumel to Tampa. While disabled in the Gulf of Mexico, the ship was struck by Tropical Storm Harvey. No crew or guests were injured during the two days the Tropicale spent without propulsion. The ship was later sold and renamed the Ocean Dream.

Carnival Splendor engine room fire

On November 8, 2010, a fire broke out in the generator room of the Carnival Splendor and the ship lost most power. The ship was adrift off the west coast of Mexico. The ship was towed to San Diego.

Carnival Triumph engine room fire

On February 10, 2013, the Carnival Triumph, with 3,143 passengers aboard, suffered an engine room fire, leaving the ship adrift for four days in the Gulf of Mexico. The ship was towed to Mobile, Alabama, docking on the evening of February 14.

Carnival Dream emergency generator failure in dock

On March 14, 2013, the Dream experienced an emergency generator failure while docked in port at Philipsburg, St. Maarten. The ship was scheduled to leave port around 5 p.m. ET the day before. The United States Coast Guard said they were notified by Carnival that the Dream was experiencing emergency generator problems. Carnival announced that the passengers will be flown back to Florida rather than completing their scheduled voyage.

Carnival Legend propulsion pod problem at sea

On the morning of March 15, 2013, the Carnival Legend suffered a mechanical problem with one propulsion pod while at sea. The cruise line cancelled the Legend's scheduled stop in Grand Cayman, and the ship returned to Tampa, FL at a reduced speed of 19 knots (14 mph)(Legend has regular cruising speed of 24 knots).
