This video has been around the different boards for the last week. It seems that Carnival is tracking down the videos and having them removed. It has been removed at least twice that I know of on CC.
Some think that this is the new Carnival Dream but the ship in this video is at least 225-250, 000 tons. The new Carnival dream is only going to be 50 feet longer than the Conquest class coming in at 1003 feet long and 121 feet wide. No way that a ship this size can support a superstructure of 12 decks that is being shown in the video. Most ships themselves today are only 12-14 decks total with only 8 decks in the superstructure but I have to say that other than the monorail I like it. Very innovative. My guess is this ship is Carnival's Pinnacle design. Won't promise you how long this link will last.

That it does. One of the first things that came to mind when I saw this.

| That's a very interesting concept. I wouldn't expect it to be something coming out in the next couple of years, but it certainly would be something if they can build it.

It's really cool but I kept thinking of things like "what about the AFT balconies?"
It is a really neat concept, no doubt about that.

That's hysterical.
A monorail, volcano, jet slide, and a lazy river. And get a load of that funnel superstructure!
Only thing missing is the promised roller coaster!

| It was really cool, but nearly complete fantasy. I can't see them ever putting that sort of monorail on a cruise ship, considering how much monorails cost to build, and especially, maintain.

| Just the thought of the weight and inertia when that thing moved around is enough to make you paranoid about the ship tipping or the monorail skipping its track. It was a cool concept, but I'll believe it when I see it WORK.

Sorry I missed it or I would've mirrored it to a place they could not touch ever.
