The Cartoon Network recently launched '[Cartoon Network Wave](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redraw-your-world),' a travelling cruise ship that is inspired by some of the network's hit TV shows. The ship will allow families to have a meal at a 'Johnny Bravo' themed restaurant, play with the 'Powerpuff Girls' and run through the Animal Kingdom.

With 11 decks that will house up to 2,000 guests in 800 fully-themed rooms, the ship is packed with fun for the entire family. Setting sail in late 2018 from the [Singapore Cruise Center](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aipowered-travel-discovery), this new ship will be making stops throughout multiple Asia-Pacific locations. Prices are starting at $150 a night and pre-booking is available online now. The Cartoon Network Wave will let people of all ages explore their favorite imaginary worlds while shopping, relaxing, partying, eating, sleeping and drinking.
