Carnival Triumph

"Carnival Triumph" is a Triumph Class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Lines and has a "Great Cities of the World" theme.

Her amenities include the Paris Dining Room, the London Dining room, the Rome Lounge, Club Rio featuring music, and a workout center and the Spa Carnival. She sails on seven day itineraries through the Eastern and Western Caribbean from Miami, Florida. The "Carnival Triumph" is structurally identical to its sister ship, the Carnival Victory, and differs from its class's namesake, the Carnival Destiny, by the addition of extra balcony cabins on the Lido deck and various changes to placement and shapes of its public areas.

The ship has one of the first sea-going cellular systems which allow guests to use their own personal cellular phones to make calls directly from the ship at any time.
