Carnival Horizon will introduce a new stateroom category when she launches in April, 2018. The sister to the already popular Carnival Vista, Carnival is tweaking their already impressive array of accommodation offerings to give guests even more choice.
The aft-view extended balcony cabins are located within the exclusive Family Harbor section of the ship. Like the other 86 staterooms within this area, the new aft-view extended balcony cabins will offer the colorful nautical decor and will have access to the Family Harbor Lounge. This lounge is a great family hang-out and includes a large screen tvs and complimentary breakfast and snacks. The 10 new rooms located aft on Deck 2 are replacing ocean view rooms that are found on Carnival Vista.
Additionally, Carnival Horizon will include an additional 18 staterooms within the Havana section. Located aft on Decks 6, 8 and 9, the new Havana staterooms feature the vibrant interiors and include access to the exclusive Havana area which includes its own Havana themed bar and pool. These new Havana section rooms are mostly located within the interior with some additional premium vista balconies being added as well.
Carnival Horizon is scheduled to make her maiden voyage on April 2, 2018, starting with a 13 day Mediterranean cruise from Barcelona, Spain. After 3 more cruise in the Mediterranean, she’ll reposition to New York for the summer sailing a series of 4 day Bermuda and 8 day Caribbean cruises. In September, 2018, Carnival Horizon will move down to her new permanent home port of Miami to start year-round 6 and 8 day Caribbean cruises. At the same time, Carnival Vista will be re-positioned from Miami to her new home port of Galveston, Texas where she’ll be sailing year-round alternating 7 Day Western Caribbean cruises.
