Carnival Elation
You will be elated when you walk into this ship's six story atrium lobby. The Carnival Elation was the first Carnival ship to be equipped with Azipod propulsion. This allows the ship to move in any direction using electric rotating motors instead of fixed propellers and a rudder. The theme for this ship is Muses Who Inspire Artists.

We stayed 4 nights on the elation. By the third I was ready to depart this ship. I found the food on the borderline of nasty. The ship was very old and it does show its age. If the crew would take...read more
