Carnival Cruise Lines

Carnival Cruise Lines is a worldwide cruise company that will have 25 vessels in its fleet by 2009. These cruise ships hold between 1,844 and 3,427 passengers eager to reach ports from Mexico to the Mediterranean.

This Miami-based company offers short and extended cruises for travelers throughout the world. Most sea trips last between three and seven days, due to the close proximity between the United States and Caribbean destinations. Extended and special trips to exotic places like Hawaii, Amsterdam and the Mediterranean require longer trips aboard Fun Ships.

Every ship in the Carnival fleet features plenty of attractions for picky travelers. The tax-free shopping in each ship's promenade allow passengers to gather toiletries, souvenirs and consumer goods without high prices. Singers, revelers and dancers are catered to aboard Carnival ships with dozens of themed lounges and restaurants.

Carnival Cruise Lines has programs for kids and teens who accompany their parents on extended cruises. The Camp Carnival program extends to all vessels in the company's fleet and provides education and entertainment for children under age 12. Teens are also entertained on Carnival ships with Internet cafes, swimming pools and dance clubs with restricted access.

One of the preferred travel agencies for Carnival is New York's Direct Line Cruises. This agency has been booking cruises and providing info for world travelers since 1995. The company's website features travel, destination and company info needed by savvy passengers before booking vacations.
