Carnival Cruise Line’s next new ship, Jubilee, marked a key construction milestone on 22 July 2023, as it floated out of the covered building dock at Meyer Werft in Papenburg, Germany and revealed an important feature of its design: a Texas star proudly displayed on the bow.
Christine Duffy, President of Carnival Cruise Line explains the reason behind Texas star:
“The Texas star on Carnival Jubilee’s bow is a symbol of our commitment to the Port of Galveston. As the first cruise line to sail year-round from Galveston, we have a long history with the community, and our next new ship is our latest investment in support of the local economy’s impressive growth while delivering innovative experiences for our guests,”
Christine Duffy, President of Carnival Cruise Line explains the reason behind Texas star: Now, Carnival Jubilee moves into its next phase of construction alongside the shipyard’s outfitting pier with sea trials scheduled for November.
