“Carnival is constantly striving to deliver truly memorable vacations for our guests in every aspect of their cruise experience and these awards are not only an honor but an affirmation of those efforts,” said Vicki Freed, Carnival’s senior vice president of sales and guest services.
“Carnival Cruise Lines continually is at the forefront of our Readers’ Choice Awards,” said Bill Panoff, publisher and editor-in-chief of Porthole Cruise Magazine. “Clearly, our readers appreciate the value and quality of the line and that shows in their votes.”
Established in 1993, Porthole Cruise Magazine is a consumer publication offering its readers a variety of information about cruising including ship reviews, news, details on popular ports of call and travel tips.
