About Carnival Elation

Carnival Elation launched in 1998 as part of the Fantasy class and has been a reliable short-cruise ship ever since. She was extensively refurbished in 2019 with a new Guy Fieri burger joint, updated staterooms, and a refreshed pool deck. At around 70,000 GT she's one of the smaller ships in the fleet, which keeps things relaxed and easy to navigate. Elation typically runs short Caribbean and Bahamas itineraries from Jacksonville, making her a convenient drive-to option for the southeastern US.
