Below you'll find all Carnival Ships by Age from newest to oldest. We know that some members of our cruise community like the newest Carnival ship off the line. And we've heard that others prefer some nostalgia. Fortunately, Carnival offers a wide variety of ship ages.
In this age of hyper-sensitivity, we wouldn't dare favor the youngest over the oldest Carnival Cruise ship. Nor vice versa. We love all ships equally. As annoyingly "PC" as that sounds, we truly have a soft spot in our hearts for all Carnival's ships regardless of age.
Our charts below will help you find the perfectly aged ship for your specific preference. We've prepared an infographic laying out Carnival ships by Age from its newest active ship, the Mardi Gras (a beast), to its oldest ship still in operation (spoiler... it's the Ecstasy).
Carnival Oldest and Youngest Ships
Many cruisers will scroll to the very top or the very bottom of the chart. Maybe they want the freshest ship off the line. Or, perhaps they just want to avoid sailing the most ancient of the fleet. Either way, here are the most common two questions ask from potential Carnival cruisers.
What is Carnival’s newest cruise ship? Carnival's newest active ship is the Horizon, launched in 2018. The next ship to be launched will be the Panorama in December 2019 and then the Mardi Gras in 2020. See details on each below.
What is Carnival’s oldest ship? Carnival's oldest cruise ship, which is still active today, is the Carnival Fantasy. It was launched in 1990 and currently offers departures form Mobile, Alabama.
Often we're asked if "age" affects size. The short answer is, "yes." It's not a 1:1 correlation. The newest ship won't always be the most expensive. And the oldest the least. Many more factors will come into play. The cruise length, itinerary, season, etc will all factor in. A new ship will generally cost more. The older ships tend to offer more deals. To get a sense of pricing, use the widget below. Play around with ships and dates to see how price changes with age and more.
You'll see from our Carnival Ship Age Infographic that the cruise line's active ships go back to 1991. If you're on one of these older ships, however, don't think expect a 90's throwback complete with Nirvana music and tamagotchis. Cruise ships are regularly upgraded to provide the newest venues and a fresh coat of paint.
Let's be honest, the Carnival Ecstasy won't have the same "new ship smell" that you'll find on the Panorama. And cruise pricing typically reflects this. Newer ships and ships more recently renovated will command higher prices than those in need of some updates.
If you're looking for the newest cruise ship off the lot, then our graph below should be exactly what you need. If you're cool with a recently upgraded ship, be sure to check out the details below. In addition to the Carnival cruise ship age, you'll also find the most recent renovation date included. The adjoining text will provide detail on the venues added during that retrofit.
