The red, white and blue livery was introduced with Mardi Gras' 2021 debut and is rolling out across the fleet during scheduled dry docks.

Cloud 9 Spa transformed

Carnival Elation's Cloud 9 Spa received one of the most significant upgrades. It was fully refreshed, including new steam and sauna rooms.

The 1998-built ship also underwent maintenance work during its less than three-week stay at Grand Bahama Shipyard.

Carnival Elation sails year-round from JAXPORT on four- and five-day Bahamas cruises. The first post-dry dock cruise, a five-day trip to Nassau and Princess Cays, departed Saturday.
