Carnival Cruise Line’s newest and largest cruise ship, Carnival Horizon, arrived in her new homeport at PortMiami this morning.
Carnival Horizon debuted earlier this year and after sailing a season in the Mediterranean and from New York, the cruise ship will now sail to the most popular cruise destination in the world, the Caribbean.
At 133,500 gross tons, Carnival Horizon is the second Vista class ship from Carnival Cruise Line. The 3,974 passenger cruise ship will sail a combination of six and eight night cruises to the Eastern and Western Caribbean from Miami. Horizon will first sail a quick two night preview cruise to the Bahamas before beginning the six and eight day cruises.
