Just returned from the CARNIVAL PRIDE 3-day cruise. I've posted several photos of the ship on this site.

I loved the ship, and this is from someone who is not a big Carnival fan. The service, food and decor were all a giant leap beyond my previous
Carnival cruise a couple years ago. I would have no problem recommending this ship to both Carnival and non-Carnival fans alike. I was impressed! A full review will follow. Enjoy the pictures!

Thanks for the pictures they were great! We are sailing march 9, does anyone know if there is an airport in Port canaveral. I know this probably seems like a silly question but we have been told that we will fly into Port canaveral and we didn't even know there was an airport there. Everyone I have talked to in the past couple of weeks is of the same impression as us. I am asking here because I don't want any surprises when we get off the plane. our TA assures us that there is an airport and that she has flown into it many times. As I said before I have lost any trust that I had for her so I'm just checking.

Hooked On Cruising...

Unless it's fairly new, I haven't heard of any airport at Cape Canaveral. When we've sailed out of there we first flew into Orlando and then had to drive to CC. It's probably about an hour from the airport.

Of Course there is an airport at Cape Canaveral!! You just have to be booked on the Space Shuttle to get there!

Good question!
Those are spare propeller blades just in case one is damaged. They store them in the forecastle area on the bow. Some other ships where they are visible are the NORWEGIAN SUN and the NORWEGIAN SKY. The SKY used to have them, until the original blade was damaged and they had to use the spares.

Hope this helps,
