That storm in early December was nasty and it caused a lot of people to miss the ship.

Don't let yourself be one of them.

This is Cruise Radio.

Hey, what's up? My name is Doug Parker. Thanks for checking out this episode of Cruise Radio. Happy to have you here. We'll get a review of Carnival Paradise today. Also, Shelly from Cruisingexcourions.com, we'll answer some of your listener questions about cruising over in Europe. Let's see. Sherry Kennedy is standing by with Cruise News. Oh, yes, we revamp the website, cruiseradio.net. Go over and check it out and tell what you think. Love to hear your

thoughts. Doug at cruiseradio.com. All right, Sherry is here. Hello, Sherry. Hey, Doug. Carnival Cruise Line

doing the cruise ship shuffle again. They sure are. Carnival Cruise Line will position a new and larger ship, rather a

newer and larger ship, to Charleston in May of 2019. The Carnival Sunshine is going to move there

for year-round four- and five-day cruises, but the shuffle begins. The Carnival Ecstasy, currently

sailing from Charleston, is going to relocate to Jacksonville for year-round four-and-five-day cruises beginning in May of 2019, and to make room for the ecstasy, the Carnival elation, which is currently based in Jacksonville, will then reposition over my area towards Port Canaveral in May of 19 again, and she will also do four- and

five-day cruises from here on the space coast. And this is kind of newsworthy. I think they're

going to have another one of those carnival journeys cruises. So out of Charleston on the sunshine,

there will be an 11-day southern Caribbean cruise, you know, if you can plant this far ahead, December 3rd through the 14th from Charleston.

And it's going to include some of my favorite ports, St. Thomas, Aruba, Bon Air, Grand Turk, and Half Moon Key.

So, it's exciting news for Charleston. But not exciting for Jacksonville. We're getting another crappy fantasy class ship. Poor old ecstasy, right? Yeah, and you're getting elation who we have right now that just got redone to like a $50 million refurb, which is awesome. But enjoy it while at last, folks. Carnival also revamping their boarding passes.

Kind of an interesting look.

It is.

It's really clear and simple to look at.

You know, you print it on your computer after you've done your check-in.

And basically, it's stated, it has your arrival appointment on it, you know, very fancy.
