The actual limits of an Aircraft Carrier are classified. However; it can travel upwards of 30 knots. Truth be told, an Aircraft Carrier has enough power to shake itself apart.
I was actually on an aircraft carrier with my handheld GPS. You wouldn't believe me if I told you how fast that thing can actually go. It is well over 35 knots.

Hey there guys...Try 85 knots or 92mph. Yes that big ship, that floating city, can go that fast.
====================
The above poster is correct........ I just did the calculations for how fast the USS Regan got to Japan after the quake and came up with roughly 104mph so 85 - 92 knots is DEAD ON!

CVW stands for Carrier Air Wing. It is the designation used for the aircraft assigned to an aircraft carrier for a deployment. It is composed of aircraft from a number of different types of squadrons. The CVW has a commanding officer that works in conjunction with the Carrier CO to conduct the mission of the carrier.
Pick a job that is associated with aircraft would improve your chances of being on a carrier.
