Could this mean that Carnival/Cunard finally figured out that a Vista Class
ship is not suitable for Cunard? Maybe they are finally seeing the big
picture? No word on *if* the "new" QUEEN VICTORIA will be an entirely new
class of ship. We only know she will be "enhanced".

Hi Ernie,

The "new" Queen Victoria WILL be built on the Vista Class hull.
Industry sources are reporting that she will have a larger ballroom &
more alternative dining areas than the original version had. She will
reportedly have more luxury & mini-suites. IOW, more like the popular
QM2. ;+)

Best regards,
