Carnival Spirit is a Spirit-class ship built in 2001, tied for #26 in the Carnival fleet by size, with 12 passenger decks. A March 2025 dry dock added the Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge, a patriotic spot honoring service members and their families, and gave the Nouveau Steakhouse new decor and an updated menu. Deck 2 midship keeps evenings busy with the Louis XIV Casino, Bonsai Sushi and the Caribbean-style RedFrog Pub. On deck 9, the Dome Main Pool sits under a glass roof beside Guy's Burger Joint, Blue Iguana Cantina and the big LED screen of the Seaside Theater. Families head to WaterWorks and its Twister Waterslide. Kids and teens have Camp Ocean, Circle C and Club O2, and adults slip away to the Serenity Adult Only Retreat.
With four sea days on this sailing, there's time for Versailles Lounge, Cloud 9 Spa and Seaside Theater.
