While all three of these ships are Carnival Cruise Line's ships, there are a few differences between the three. Each of these three ships are members of different ship classes.
I decided to put together a chart that will compare some basic information, amenities, and features of all three of these ships. The information is not comprehensive, which means not all differences or features are included. The goal of this chart is to give some basic information about each ship.
