Carnival Cruise Lines will be featured in an upcoming episode of the popular Travel Channel series, Trip Flip.  During the show, a couple from Austin, Texas, is surprised with a six-day cruise on the line’s newest ship, Carnival Breeze, and whisked away to the balmy Caribbean.

Hosted by professional fun-seeker, comedian, and travel expert Bert Kreischer, Trip Flip does a “switcheroo” on travelers who may already be on vacation, as well as people still in their hometown, by tossing out the guidebook and giving them an exceptional holiday experience they never saw coming.

During the Carnival Breeze episode, Texas natives Shannon and Nathan are initially taken on a vacation to Miami’s South Beach.  After a few days, they’re surprised with a voyage on the spectacular Carnival Breeze.  Viewers will have the opportunity to “cruise vicariously” through Shannon and Nathan as they check out the ship’s many innovations.

On board, the couple traverses the ropes course at SportSquare, taking in awe-inspiring views of the sea 150 feet below.  They also take a plunge down the 312-foot-long Twister water slide and enjoy luxurious pampering at the Cloud 9 Spa.  Kreischer even pulls some strings and gets Nathan, an amateur comedian, headline billing at The Punchliner Comedy Club presented by George Lopez.  The episode also includes breathtaking scenes as Shannon and Nathan snorkel the colorful coral reefs of Grand Turk in the Turks & Caicos Islands.

The 30-minute episode featuring Carnival Breeze will air on Travel Channel on Sunday May 5, at 8 p.m. EST.
