MS ''Magellan'' is a ''Holiday''-class cruise ship which was formerly owned by Carnival Cruise Lines as ''Holiday'' and Ibero Cruises as the ''Grand Holiday''. She sailed for Cruise & Maritime Voyages In Spring 2015. ==Ship history== MS ''Holiday'' was built by Aalborg Værft in Aalborg, Denmark and entered service for Carnival Cruise Lines in 1985. The ship's condition had been in decline until 2003, when she was sent into the dry docks and renovated. In 2005, during Hurricane Katrina, she was taken out of service to be used as temporary housing for the victims of the storm, and to also be used to aid the victims of the storm. After leaving Mississippi, she again went to the dry docks for an additional three weeks of renovations. New carpeting and plumbing were added and repairs to the propellers were made, among other improvements. MS ''Holiday'' resumed her normal route in the Western Caribbean, sailing from Mobile, Alabama until November 2009. In November 2009, MS ''Holiday'' was retired from the Carnival fleet and was later transferred to the fleet of Iberocruceros,〔Carnival Holiday leaving the fleet http://www.allbusiness.com/manufacturing/transportation-equipment-mfg-ship/12180902-1.html〕 another cruise line owned by Carnival Corporation & plc as MS ''Grand Holiday''.
