Donna Tunney posted a great article on Carnival's latest news on refurbishing the Carnival Destiny to the point of re-naming her. She will be like a brand new ship when they are finished but wait ? Carnival Sunshine ??? That sounds familiar ???
Maybe a little too familiar. That is the name of the Royal Caribbean Project, Project Sunshine. Project Sunshine is Royal Caribbean's new ship build, which is a brand new class of ship. In fact they just placed an order for the second ship in the class.
Now, she won't be *named* Sunshine of the Seas, just as Project Genesis was named the Oasis for the Seas but still.... REALLY? Carnival just happened to pick Sunshine?, REALLY??
Here is a photo of the Destiny
And just to take a look at what Royal Caribbean has updated on Feb. 29th, 2012

Royal Caribbean has opted to exercise an option to build a second Sunshine-class cruise ship, that will be delivered in Spring 2015.
Royal Caribbean's decision to build the second of the yet-to-be-seen class of ships signals the company feels good about the project. The ship will be built by German shipbuilder Meyer Werft on substantially the same terms as its first Sunshine ship.
Royal Caribbean Chairman Richard Fain commented on the decision, "This confirms our continued confidence in the success of this new generation of ships and our strong conviction about the Royal Caribbean International brand."
Like the first ship Royal Caribbean ordered (and is still under construction), the second ship will be 158,000 gross registered tonnes and accommodate 4,100 guests.
