About the Vista Class
The Vista class ships introduced several innovations to the Carnival fleet including the Sky Ride, a suspended cycle track on the top deck where guests pedal in open-air cars above the ocean, and the RedFrog Pub and Brewery, the first brewery at sea on a Carnival ship. The IMAX Theater, a full-sized movie theater on board, was another first. Vista class ships are among the most feature-rich in the Carnival fleet outside of the Excel class and offer strong value on Caribbean and Alaskan itineraries.
