True. Not sure why. We are booked on the Carnival Dream (aft-wrap balcony) out of New Orleans 1/25/15! :D

The Sunshine now has roughly the same guest count capability as the dream and has ALL the 2.0 upgrades. Because the Sunshine is considered "New" and the dream is now entering it's 5th year in service they made the switch to make more $$. We are sailing on the Dream in October and got an AMAZINGLY cheap cruise. Going on the Sunshine in April (both out of Port Canaveral) and we are paying almost Double per person to go on the Sunshine. Simple money is the reason for the switch, they owe more on the Sunshine now and need to make it profitable.

We were looking forward to the Sunshine being in New Orleans (our closest port). We sailed the Destiny in December and wanted to see all the changes. Then the Dream came along and we too got a great room (premium vista balcony) at a great price! Goodbye Sunshine, Hello Dream! :D
