Carnival Unveils New Kids-Focused Program

Now is a good to be between the ages of 12 and 14, particularly if you are going to be sailing with Carnival Cruise Lines. The cruise line has introduced "Circle C," a new onboard program children's program designed explicitly for the 12- to 14-year-old age group.

Circle C is the third such kid-centric program, joining Camp Carnival for younger kids and Club O2, which targets the 15- to 17-year-old age group. Circle C will include dedicated facilities and activities, such as custom clubs with video-gaming pods and sports programs. Its taking on the motto: "cruise.chill.connect."

Circle C facilities already exist on Carnival Legend, Carnival Pride, Carnival Victory and Carnival Valor. Carnival Imagination, Carnival Inspiration, Carnival Liberty, Carnival Fantasy, Carnival Paradise and Carnival Glory are scheduled to be retrofitted by the end of this year. The rest of the Carnival fleet will have facilities in place by 2010. Visit www.carnival.com. (DE)
