Carnival Cruise Line Removing Ship Libraries for More Bars and Cafes
-
Carnival Cruise Line is removing libraries from ships, both new builds and older ships undergoing renovations.
-
Libraries were small, quiet spaces for reading, board games, meetings, etc.
-
The spaces are being converted into more popular and revenue-generating venues like bars and cafes.
-
Reactions are mixed, with some lamenting the loss of a peaceful space while others rarely used libraries.
-
Alternatives include quiet corners of atriums and promenades, adults-only areas, empty lounges, and staying in staterooms.
