CARNIVAL Cruise Line has announced its 2021/22 season will be the largest deployment to date in Australia, featuring a whopping 115 sailings between Jul 2021 and Jun 2022.
The cruise line’s latest program will see a 31% increase in cruises offered when compared to the previous season, with sailings departing from Brisbane and Sydney, resulting in 270 port of call and 338 days at sea.
The boost in capacity is thanks to the year-round homeporting of two ships in Australia during the period, with Carnival Spirit and Carnival Splendor both boasting a number of maiden calls in the region, including the tropical islands of Papua New Guinea and Dravuni Island in Fiji (pictured).
Carnival Cruises’ Vice President and General Manager Australia Jennifer Vandekreeke believes the cruise line will continue to increase in popularity with the local market in part because of its diversification of available destinations.
“With so many unique, off-the-beaten-path destinations to explore…Australians have more reasons than ever to choose Carnival,” she enthused.
Highlights of the program include a four-night cruise on Carnival Spirit from Brisbane to Airlie Beach from $549ppts departing 30 Jan 2022.
Also on offer is a 15-night voyage between Singapore and Brisbane which explores the Kimberley, Bali, Darwin and Cairns along the way.
The cruise is priced from $2,149ppts and departs Singapore on 12 Jun 2021.
