Carnival Paradise
Carnival Paradise was built as the world's first completely non-smoking cruise ship, with strict enforcement that included $250 fines and removal at the next port for passengers found with smoking materials. The smoke-free policy was discontinued after poor revenue, with the non-smoking signs painted over upon the ship's arrival in Long Beach. Built by Kværner Masa-Yards in Helsinki, Finland, the ship was christened by Paula Zahn and has been operated by Carnival Cruise Line since entering service.
Carnival Paradise accommodates 2,124 passengers on a lower berth basis, supported by a crew of 920. The ship has 1,061 cabins spread across 14 decks and is powered by Wartsila engines with a service speed of 21 knots.
