First Steel Cut for 135,000-ton Carnival Vista

Fincantieri has begun the construction of the Carnival Cruise Lines’ newest ship, the 135,000-ton Carnival Vista.

Last week, Fincantieri’s Monfalcone Yard held a steel cutting ceremony marking the beginning of construction of Carnival’s next “Fun Ship”, scheduled for delivery in spring 2016.

Following the initial start-up of construction, workers will now proceed with building the 4,000-passenger ship, which will feature a variety of dining, bar and entertainment options that are part of the line’s Fun Ship 2.0 product enhancement initiative, as well as several innovations unique to this vessel.

Carnival Vista will be the 25th vessel in the Carnival Cruise Lines’ fleet.
