One of Carnival’s four Spirit-class ships, it is smaller than Liberty and her sister ships. The ship operates Mexican Riviera itineraries and runs its own kids’ shore excursion programme. There is also a wedding chapel. Service is quick, with lots of up-selling.
Suitability
Aimed at a younger, predominantly American crowd that likes to have fun. This can be a culture shock to Brits who are fans of the more refined P&O-type cruises. Generally very good value for money.
