Carnival Sunrise

Carnival Sunrise (formerly Carnival Triumph) is a Destiny-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Line. As she and her three younger sisters (Carnival Radiance, Costa Fortuna, and Costa Magica) are each a redesigned version of the lead ship in the class, she is sometimes referred to as the first of the Triumph class of cruise ships.
