The move will provide faster service, greater capacity and more reliable WiFi across the brands’ fleets.
The company plans to expand Starlink to several of its other brands, including Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Seabourn, P&O Cruises Australia, Costa Cruises, P&O Cruises (UK) and Cunard.
"For many of our guests, it has become more and more important to maintain the type of connectivity at sea that they’ve become accustomed to at home, and of course to share the unforgettable experiences of their cruise with friends and family," said Josh Weinstein, chief executive of Carnival Corporation.
Weinstein said the added bandwidth will give the brands the "capabilities and flexibility" to introduce new guest services and features, as well as help boost operational functions like onboard equipment monitoring.
