Today at 2 p.m. EDT, Carnival Cruise Lines’ PR department (@CarnivalPR) is hosting a Carnival Breeze Twitter Party to celebrate the ship’s official handover. Join us (@OrlandoChris) as we welcome the new ship, talk about Carnival Breeze and more.
Also expected to participate are popular bloggers Nancy Schretter (@KidTravel). Shannon Hurst Lane (@ CajunMomma & @TravelingMamas), Stephanie Fauquet (@MommyMusings), Doug Parker (@CruiseRadio), Anita Dunham Potter (@ExperCruiser) and Helena Stone (@Chip_Chick).
Soon, all of the above will join us on Carnival Breeze and will be experiencing the ship’s new dining and entertainment venues on a media-familiarization cruise in Europe.
Hashtag for the chat is #CarnivalBreeze.
At the end of the chat Carnival is giving away a beach tote filled with branded items including autographed bottles of Food Network personality Guy Fieri’s sauces.

Carnival Breeze debuts with a 12-night sailing that begins in Venice on June 3rd and ends in Barcelona on June 15. That’s when we get on for a similar sailing on the new ship, round-trip Barcelona. To get ready, we’re studying up on ports to be visited, checking information on international travel and keeping a close eye on the features of Carnival Breeze, sister-ship to Carnival Magic that we sailed on last year. This is one of a series of posts detailing all of that and will be answering reader questions along the way.
