CARNIVAL Cruise Line has made its debut in Cuba, with the arrival of Carnival Paradise in Havana (pictured).
The 2,052-passenger vessel is the largest to ever call at Havana and the voyage marks the first of 12 four- and five-day cruises to the destination.
Before departing Port Tampa Bay on its voyage, Carnival Paradise hosted a bon voyage reception and marked the occasion with a 10-foot long Cuban sandwich – the world’s largest Cuban sandwich at sea – & a $25,000 donation to Tampa’s Ybor City Museum Society.
