Carnival Elation | Ultimate Cruise Ship Tour

Carnival Elation, launched in 1998, is one of four remaining Fantasy-Class cruise ships in the Carnival Cruise Line fleet.
If you’re looking to cruise for less than one week, but more than just a weekend, Carnival Elation’s 4 & 5 night Bahamas & Caribbean itineraries from Port Canaveral, Florida are a great choice. Carnival Elation is one of Carnival’s oldest and smallest ships, but she’s big on features, dining choices and activities.

    I have been on this ship. One thing we did for free is going outside at night in the front of the ship near the mini golf. Lean back on the angled glass and look up at the stars. We were able to see a shooting star. It was the highlight of the entire cruise. The sad part is we didn't discover it until the last night.

    Hi Hull Style Productions Change the World, thanks for watching. The bow is typically the best spot to star watch. If you can go all the way forward like on some Royal Caribbean ships, it's amazing.

    My daughter and I cruised on Elation around seven or eight years ago when we took a vacation to New Orleans. It was a nice way to break up our week in Louisiana by taking a four-night cruise. It was before they drydocked her and installed the water park stuff and that Blue Iguana and the Cantina on the pool deck. What i liked about it was like having two cruises in one. It took like eight hours to get from New Orleans to the Gulf of Mexico, which was the same thing as taking a river cruise. I loved it, passing all of the cargo ships and tankers, the oil pumps shooting flames into the sky. We really enjoyed that ship, with good service and decent food. I'm glad they haven't discarded her yet, as one would with an older, less capable lover.

    This is the only cruise I've ever been on, back somewhere between 2003 or 2004. It was the summer before 2nd or 3rd grade, we went to Belize, Cozumel, and 1 other location, which I can't remember, good times. I would love to get the full experience now as an adult.

    Wife and I will be on this ship in 8-days 20-hours and 0-minutes. Can't wait. We usually go out of NOLA on the Valor, been on the Breeze out of Galveston, this is our first time out of Jacksonville and on the Elation. I watched the tour mainly to see which deck was the highway. We're so used to the Valor and know it's deck 5. The only reason I hate trying different ships is the amount of time it takes us to find our way around. This tour and the deck plans are appreciated. Can not wait! Now it's 8-days 19-hours and 56-minutes. 🙂

    Elation is one of only two survivors of Carnival's Fantasy class kill off. I'm glad it finally got the Water Works upgrades. Back in the day, I hated when I'd get bumped from Fantasy to Elation, because it lacked the water slides. Hope I can sail either this ship or Paradise at least one more time before they're retired.
