Carnival to Seuss up their ships.
Good news for Carnival cruisers as the Freedom will be going into dry dock this spring to undergo a multi million dollar makeover that will add the very first ever Bookville family reading space – all part of the recently launched Seuss At Sea programme in partnership with Dr Seuss enterprises.
There will be a variety of dining, bar and entertainment innovations that are part of the line’s Fun Ship 2.0 product enhancement initiative.
The majority of these exciting new features will be incorporated during a dry dock that will take place in Freeport, The Bahamas, from 19th April to 3rd May, 2014, with Bookville scheduled to be completed by the departure of 24th May.
Following the dry dock, Carnival Freedom will resume its popular six- to eight-day Caribbean schedule from Fort Lauderdale, and introduce two new five-day Caribbean options, marking the first time that a Fun Ship 2.0-equipped ship will operate a short cruise itinerary from South Florida.
As part of the new Seuss at Sea program, Carnival Freedom will be the first ship to feature Bookville, a dedicated Seuss-themed play space featuring iconic décor, colours, shapes and funky furniture inspired by the whimsical world of Dr. Seuss. The perfect place for families to relax and unwind, guests can read beloved Dr. Seuss books or stretch their imagination through family-fun activities such as arts and crafts, toys and Dr. Seuss-inspired games.
Other Seuss at Sea activities include the Green Eggs and Ham Breakfast with the Cat in the Hat and Friends, an interactive reading event called Seuss-a-palooza Story Time, and the Seuss-a-palooza Character Parade along the ship’s promenade.
I think this is brilliant and a real selling point for Carnival and makes them competitive with Royal Caribbean who offer the Dreamworks experiences on some of their ships. A great choice for those travelling with little ones and a reassurance that the little ones are going to kept entertained throughout their cruise.
