Carnival Corporation & plc's subsidiary Carnival Cruise Line is one of the most renowned cruise companies in the world. It operates cruises to the Caribbean, Alaska, as well as the Pacific Islands. Carnival Corporation & plc operates two cruise ships: the Holland America Princess Alaska Tours (owned and operated by Carnival Corporation & plc) and the Princess Cruises (owned and operated by Princess Cruises Canada Yukon).
Recently, the company has made several announcements about its cruise ships and plans for the future. In addition, it has started to work on several initiatives that will reduce its environmental impact. It has already pledged to recycle all discarded soap. It will also recycle the soap and distribute soap bars to the most vulnerable areas around the globe.
Carnival has announced a new partnership agreement with Clean the World. This partnership will help expand Clean the World's recycling efforts in Caribbean. Carnival will collect the discarded soap and ship it to the Clean the World center in the United States. This facility will produce 400,000 bars of soap that can be used to clean the environment and distributed them to communities in need around the globe.
A campaign that targets children is another initiative being developed by Carnival Cruise Line. Carnival Cruise Line's Camp Ocean is available to families with children aged five years and over. Children are welcome to join the camp at no cost and can enjoy free breakfast, games, and other family-friendly activity. The camps are not open to children younger than five years of age.
In addition, the cruise company is developing its "green" cruising platform. This platform will feature a vessel that uses LNG to power it and many other groundbreaking features. SkyRide, a pedal powered open air aerial attraction, is just one example. This feature will provide panoramic views of the ocean from a height of 150 feet.
Clean the World was a partner of the cruise line earlier in the month. This partnership is the third between the companies. The partnership will see the launch of new initiatives by the companies to reduce waste disposal, improve hygiene services in Central America, and South America.
Carnival has also made an important announcement that it would redeploy its ships to Australia. The Carnival Splendor will return to Australia at the close of the year. The ship will remain out of service for approximately three months, then it will return to Long Beach, California.
Carnival Cruise Line is the world's largest cruise line. It offers a range of three- and 24-day trips to destinations in the Caribbean. It was among the many honors that Travel Weekly awarded it with the Best Family Cruise Line.
Carnival's cruise ships often have a kids' club called Camp Ocean. It is available to children five and older. Select cruises will offer families a concierge service. These concierge services include complimentary breakfast for families as well as a game room for the whole family.

How To
How to stay safe while on a cruise ship
Before you embark on your cruise, there are many things that you need to know. You must understand how to behave when onboard so you don't get into trouble. Here are some safety tips to help you enjoy your trip.
-
Pay attention to your surroundings at all costs. People are more likely to be together when they're eating on a cruise ship than anywhere else. Because you are surrounded with people who want to talk and eat, it is easy to get distracted from your tasks. This shouldn't distract you from the work you are supposed to do. If you witness someone smoking or drinking alcohol, please tell them politely that they must stop.
-
Always keep your room key close to you when you board the ship, and hand over your room key to the person checking you in. You will be able to tell them where you are if they need you. Keep your passport with you.
-
Keep your valuables out of sight. Most cabins are equipped with drawers beneath the bed. It's a great spot to store money, passports, and credit cards. Be sure to keep nothing valuable out of plain sight. Place your bags in the closet.
-
Stay hydrated. Cruise ships provide plenty of water, but sometimes it's hard to remember to drink enough. Get bottled water for free on the ship. You should avoid becoming dehydrated. Dehydration can lead to fatigue, crankiness, and even fights.
-
Attention to announcements. Announcements are displayed everywhere, including on TV screens. They include safety procedures and emergency exits as well as weather reports. Pay attention to these announcements. These announcements could save your life.
-
Never leave your cabin unlocked. No matter how friendly a crew member may seem, never leave your cabin without locking it. Thieves are known to break in through doors that are not locked. A crew member can grant permission to use the restroom.
-
Avoid going alone overboard. It can take some time for the ship's crew and you to be rescued from the water. You may attract sharks or other sea creatures to your body while you are still on the ship's crew. It's best to wait until help arrives.
-
Do not smoke in an elevator. These elevators are pressurized and smoke can build up quickly. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, get off immediately. It doesn't necessarily mean that breathing is safe, even though the outside air is clean.
-
Be familiar with the evacuation procedures. Each year, thousands of people die after being trapped in elevators. If an emergency occurs, follow the instructions on the screen.
-
Make sure you are familiar with the fire drill. Fire drills are held regularly, often once per day. Everyone on the deck must evacuate during a drill. Follow the crew members' directions. After the drill is completed, return to your cabin and lock it.
-
Ask questions before accepting food and drink. Cruisers can get food poisoning. People don't know that certain foods are not safe to be eaten while aboard a ship. Most cruise ships prohibit raw oysters. If you're not sure whether the food being served is safe, you can politely decline it and opt for another meal.
-
You should be cautious when swimming in the pool. There have been many cases of passengers falling into the pools accidentally. You should not fall into the pools unless someone spots you. You can also slip and fall off the deck at any moment. Wearing proper footwear is a must and paying attention to the surroundings are important.
