Set to debut in Europe September 21, 2009, the new 130,000-tonne Carnival Dream is taking shape at Fincantieri’s Monfalcone shipyard. Workers are currently piecing together the ship’s more than 1,800 staterooms.

The largest Carnival Cruise Lines ship ever constructed, Carnival Dream will offer a variety of onboard amenities and features including a huge WaterWorks aqua park, “scenic whirlpools” that extended over the ship’s beam, and the line’s first two-level miniature golf course. A number of innovative stateroom accommodations, including a two-bathroom configuration that will be ideal for families, will also be offered.

Following its European debut, the massive liner will offer two voyages from New York and then reposition to Port Canaveral, Florida, for year-round seven-day Caribbean cruises beginning December 5, 2009.
