The Concordia class is a class of cruise ships that are operated by Costa Cruises and Carnival Cruise Lines, subsidiaries of Carnival Corporation & plc.
Carnival operate only a single vessel, the Carnival Splendor, which is marketed to be a Splendor-class ship. However, Carnival Splendor accurately belong to Concordia-class. Currently, there are four ships sailing in this class. Another two ships are on order.[1] The ship's design is based on the design of Carnival's Conquest-class fleet of ships.
However, their design from lido(pool) deck up to the top deck was enlarged and redesigned. The most notable difference is the structure around the main pool. The main pool features a glass exterior on both sides of the ship. A retractable roof was also added for the main pool. Another notable difference is the enlargement of its spa facilities. Each ship has a 21,000-ft2 (2,000-m2) wellness facility. Additional spa cabins were also included into the Concordia-Class.
