MIAMI (August 22, 2006) – Carnival Cruise Lines, the world’s largest cruise
operator, and Masterfoods USA, one of America’s leading snack food
manufacturers, have teamed up for a unique Halloween promotion where guests
sailing aboard the “Fun Ships” can participate in costume contests, enjoy
scary movies and “ghost stories” and, of course, go trick or treating for a
seemingly endless array of Halloween goodies.
The new “Frightfully Fun” promotion will be held on every “Fun Ship” cruise
departing between October 9-31, 2006.
“Halloween has always been a festive time aboard Carnival’s ships and our new
‘Frightfully Fun’ promotion goes a step beyond traditional Halloween
activities, providing guests of all ages with an exciting and creative way to
celebrate this popular holiday, ‘Fun Ship’-style,” said Bob Dickinson,
Carnival president and CEO.
Highlighting the festivities will be a costume contest and parade where “Fun
Ship” guests can dress up in their favorite costume and compete for a variety
of prizes, including “M&M’S”â Character plush toys.
Crew members throughout the fleet will be dressed in costume, as well, and
guests can have their photo taken with their favorite “M&M’S”â Character.
Kids aged one to 14 will be invited go trick or treating through the ships’
various public lounges and areas, stocking up on a variety of delicious
Masterfoods USA Fun Size candies, including “M&M’S”â Milk Chocolate, “M&M’S”â
Peanut, SNICKERSâ and SKITTLESâ.
