Ah it seems like it was only a year ago that people were still skeptical that this was a carrier and trying to say it was really cargo ship....
Oh wait, it was only a year ago, lul.
Yes ... time is passing by more than fast. I think I'm getting old.

My guess is the first two carriers would be deployed to two different fleets in peacetime. Although if there is rel threat of war, it would make sense for the different peacetime fleets to coalesce into a single operational fleet with multiple carriers, sort of like British grand fleet of WWI, or Japanese combined fleet of first part of WWII.
It looks like the ship would be fairly close to being fully fitted out when she is released from the dry dock.

Actually it still has to be refitted with other interior equipment and machinery as well before being release from dry dock.
