Carnival cruise Lines History 

  carnival cruise lines  

Carnival Cruise Lines was established with a converted transatlantic ocean liner by the American entrepreneur in 1972 by Ted Arison . His concept was of making a holiday experience once reserved for the rich accessible to the average person. Some 33 years later, Arison's dream has long been a reality, and Carnival is the largest cruise line in the world. Carnival Cruise Lines is now a branded division within Carnival Corporation & plc, a publicly traded company with Micky Arison and then Pierre Foschi as the Chairman and operates Carnival Cruise Lines, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, Cunard Line, Costa Cruises, Yachts of Seabourn - Carnival Cruise Lines buy the first ship  Empress of Canada and rename it the TSS Mardi Gras.
