These will be in addition to the various activities introduced on Carnival Vista, including the SkyRide ‘bike in the sky’ attraction, aqua park, Imax theatre and micro-brewery.

Details of the new features on Carnival Horizon will be revealed in the near future, according to the line.

Carnival Horizon will set off on its 13-day maiden voyage on April 2, 2018. The ship will sail a round-trip from Barcelona before leaving for New York on 9th May.

Carnival Horizon will sail from New York to the Caribbean throughout summer 2018 before re-positioning in September to its year-round base of Miami.

“From our amazing SkyRide and the WaterWorks aqua park to first Imax theatre on a cruise ship, Carnival Vista has offered our guests a brand new view of fun.
