Which ship has the bolt roller coaster?

Bolt is currently found on Carnival cruise ships Mardi Gras and Carnival Celebration.



The BOLT®: Ultimate Sea Coaster is a featured attraction on Carnival Cruise Line's Excel-class ships. As of 2026, the three ships equipped with this high-speed, all-electric roller coaster are the Mardi Gras, Carnival Celebration, and Carnival Jubilee. The coaster track encircles the ship's iconic funnel on Deck 19, reaching speeds of up to 40 mph (64 km/h). One of the most unique features of BOLT is that riders have a "throttle" and can actually control the speed of their vehicle as they navigate twists, turns, and drops nearly 190 feet above the water line. Due to its popularity, Carnival often requires guests to reserve a "ride time" through the Carnival HUB app. It is important to note that the ride is subject to weather conditions and weight/height requirements, and usually incurs an additional per-person fee not included in the standard cruise fare.

You want to be as close to the pivot point as possible to feel the least movement. Avoid cabins near the front (bow) or back (stern) and on decks higher than the middle deck of the ship. So, on a ship with fourteen passenger decks, your best options are below deck seven.

The most stable part of the ship is its lowest point of gravity, so on a lower deck, at the center. You'd feel a lot less motion here than, say, in a stateroom on the upper decks a long way forward or aft (towards the back of the ship).
