Carnival Destiny is a cruise ship owned and operated by Carnival Cruise Lines. She is soon to be renamed Carnival Sunshine. Destiny spends her time plying the waters of the Caribbean. Upon entering service in 1996, she was the largest passenger ship ever built as measured by gross tonnage to be over 100,000 tons. She is the lead ship of the Destiny-class and has four similar sister ships: Carnival Triumph, and Carnival Victory sailing for Carnival Cruises and Costa Fortuna and Costa Magica sailing for Costa Cruises. The Carnival ships differ from her by the addition of extra balcony cabins on their Lido decks and various changes to placements and shapes of their public areas; the Costa ships have more dancing space and a smaller casino, as well as changes in locations of her public spaces.
As of March 2012, Giuseppe Giusa is the captain of Carnival Destiny.
