CARNIVAL Cruise Line has
pulled Carnival Spirit out of
Australia for the 2018 winter
season in favour of China (CW
breaking news yesterday).
The move marks the brand’s
entry into China, but Spirit is set
return to Australia in spring 2018
and will be replaced in Shanghai
by Carnival Splendor in 2019.
“It is important for the Carnival
brand to establish a presence in
the Asia cruise market and after
evaluating many different options
we decided that the seasonal
deployment of Carnival Spirit in
2018 was the best opportunity
for us,” said Carnival Cruise Line
president Christine Duffy.
