Your Ship

Carnival Freedom

The last Conquest-class hull, and the ship that has lost her funnel twice

Aboard

  • Fifth and last ship of the Conquest class, delivered by Fincantieri in February 2007
  • A funnel fire at Grand Turk in May 2022 destroyed the starboard wing of her whale tail
  • The replacement funnel fitted at Cadiz in October 2023 burned again in March 2024
  • She sails today with a plain straight funnel, unlike any other ship in the fleet
  • A 2019 dry dock added the WaterWorks aqua park with a 203-foot AquaTunnel slide
  • Crosses to Europe in autumn 2026, then moves from Port Canaveral to Norfolk in May 2027
