Carnival Cruise Line's HUB App Lets Travelers Order Pizza and Beer
Katherine Pendrill — June 3, 2019 — Tech
Cruise ships are meant to function like floating cities and now Carnival Cruise Line has taken that concept one step further by debuting pizza and beer delivery through its HUB App.
Just this week, Carnival announced that guests using the HUB App to order a piping hot pie, can now add soda, bottled water, or beer to their order. Beer options include a choice between Peroni, Miller Lite, and Blue Moon, while the pizza options include Margherita, Mushroom, Prosciutto, Pepperoni, and Four-Cheese.
As of right now, the beer and pizza pairings are only available on the Carnival Conquest, Carnival Liberty, Carnival Glory, and Carnival Sensation. However, the plan is to roll out the sweet new feature across Carnival's whole fleet in the next few months.
