�To be recognized by consumers as the top cruise choice in so many
different categories, particularly in areas such as children�s
programming, entertainment and value, which are core elements of the
Carnival vacation experience, is a truly wonderful honor,� said Ruben
Rodriguez, Carnival�s executive vice president of marketing and guest
experience.
Added Bill Panoff, publisher and editor-in-chief of Porthole Cruise
Magazine, �Carnival Cruise Lines appeals to many different cruisers
for many different reasons, which is why our readers continually vote
them the best in several categories. From ships to onboard amenities
to itineraries, the line continues to be a market leader and I
congratulate them on their wins.�
