CARNIVAL Cruise Line has announced its next phase of restart plans, which includes the cancellation of four additional sailings for both Carnival Spirit and Carnival Splendor (pictured) out of Australia.
Cruises on both ships are now cancelled up to and including 16 Dec – the day before the human biosecurity emergency period is set to expire (CW 03 Sep).
The cruise line’s restart continues in the United States though, with Carnival Valor announced to be joining Carnival Glory in New Orleans with four- and five-night sailings starting from Nov.
Carnival Legend will restart from 14 Nov out of Baltimore, replacing Carnival Pride, which will homeport in Tampa from 14 Nov.
The maiden voyage of Carnival Radiance will take place 13 Dec out of Long Beach, rescheduled from 05 Nov due to a revised dry dock transformation plan, while Carnival Conquest’s restart from Miami, scheduled for 08 Oct, has been suspended until 13 Dec.
Carnival Sensation’s 21 Oct restart from Mobile has also been moved to Jan.
Protocols for vaccinations, testing and masks are to remain in place through to the end of the year, with Carnival to continue to meet the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention’s standard of vaccinated cruises.
Carnival is also working to set up pre-sailing rapid testing sites at all of its homeports, while guests will be asked to wear masks in most indoor venues of the ship where people congregate.
