Carnival Cruise Lines started in 1972 with one ship and today is one of the biggest cruise lines in the world with over 20 ships in their fleet. They operate under the Carnival Corporation umbrella and offer guests a variety of cruises to destinations around the world.
In 1990, the Carnival Fantasy made her debut. It would be one of eight ships in the Fantasy-class. In 1994, Carnival’s parent company was named Carnival Corporation to distinguish it from its brand, Carnival Cruise Lines. Between 1996 and 2008, four Spirit-class ships, three Destiny-class ships and five Conquest-class ships were launched. In 2009 Carnival Cruise Lines introduced their Dream-class with the Carnival Dream.
Carnival markets themselves as the “Fun Ships”, catering to families with children and passengers under the age of 55. In fact, Carnival Cruise Lines carries over 700,000 children annually. They offer an extensive children and teens program with three separate age groups, Camp Carnival (ages 2 to11), Circle C (ages 12 to 14) and Club O2 (ages 15 to 17).
Many of the cruise jobs on board their ships are recruited through their worldwide recruitment agencies listed on their employment web pages.
