She was launched in 2000.
Carnival Victory is themed to depict the different oceans and seas of the world. She is structurally identical to her sister ship, Carnival Triumph. The Triumph-class ships are closely related to the earlier Destiny-class, but differ from Carnival Destiny in the addition of extra balcony cabins on their Lido decks and various changes to placement and architecture of public areas.
In late 2007, Carnival Victory underwent a refit which included the installation of Carnival's Seaside Theater for the midship pool. Some of her features include a nine-story atrium, four pools, numerous dining options, various entertainment options, a casino, and a spa.
