Carnival did not publish a press release or any communication - the only way I found out was by searching for 2019 cruises on their website.

 Carnival Cruises' Carnival Horizon SkyRide Today I am going to cover a great activity onboard Carnival Cruises' New Carnival Horizon  - The SkyRide. The SkyRide is a bit like riding a bike — you’ll never forget it. But SkyRide is also completely unlike riding a bike, because when was the last time you biked around a ship, high above the deck and even higher above the sparkling blue sea? Zip safely around our two-lane suspended course in a pedal-powered go-mobile, in search of your biggest racing victory, a lower-body workout… or simply the greatest view.
