Carnival Magic is a Dream-class cruise ship that entered service operated by Carnival Cruise Line. Built by Fincantieri in Italy, the ship was christened in Venice by Lindsey Wilkerson Alsup, a former patient and current employee at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Carnival Magic distinguishes itself from her sister ship Carnival Dream through her 18 double-size lifeboats and a prominent SkyCourse ropes course positioned forward of her funnel.
