Uh oh.....

Is it going to be an enlarged GRAND-class, or a derived CONQUEST-class? or could it be a 130,000grt version from Carnival......

What's out there .....are endless possibilities . The picture reminds me of RCI....

Or perhaps final details and renderings of their new Ventura. I've never been satisfied with the renderings I've seen so far. It seemed like a cheap photoshop of a Grand Class ship with P&O colours on the funnel and a overlarge name plasterred on the bow.

I always felt that the initial information on Ventura was preliminary.

I'm guessing Ventura maiden voyage details. Has Carnival any undeclared new ship options?
