Carnival Cruise Line has announced that it is cancelling 10 sailings and altering 3 ships, due to the hurricanes. These changes impact passengers who are already on board these affected vessels. Carnival hopes to allow all of their customers back home safe and sound.

Carnival Cruise Line has announced adjustments to three ships’ itineraries, including departures from Florida and Europe. There have been ten departures modified in all, including one for the new Mardi Gras.
Changes to the Carnival Itinerary
Carnival Cruise Line’s itineraries are still being tweaked, and after three ship modifications last week, there are now more alterations on the way. There are some adjustments for the Carnival Pride sailing from Tampa, as well as one sailing for the ship’s departure from Italy in 2023. Carnival Dream, situated in Galveston, Texas, and Mardi Gras, based in Port Canaveral, have both undergone alterations.
Tampa’s Carnival Pride and Civitavecchia’s Carnival Pride
The Carnival Pride is the focus of the bulk of the itinerary adjustments. The ship’s seven-day voyage from Tampa to Grand Cayman, which sails on January 23, 2022, will no longer stop in Grand Cayman and will have a different itinerary. Cozumel, Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Costa Maya will all be visited throughout the cruise.

Carnival Pride sailing from Tampa Bay on March 20 and April 17 will no longer include a stop at Grand Cayman. Costa Maya, Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Cozumel will now be visited on certain sailings. Cozumel, Belize, Mahogany Bay, and Costa Maya have been added to the November 12 and December 23 voyages.

The Spirit-class cruise ship will spend the summer of 2023 in the United Kingdom and Europe. The Carnival Pride’s repositioning voyage to the United States, which sails from the Italian port of Civitavecchia on October 23, 2023, will no longer feature a stop in Bermuda.
The ship will instead dock at Grand Turk, replacing previously planned stops in Cartagena, Spain, Funchal, Madeira, and Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel Island.
Galveston’s Carnival Dream
An schedule modification affecting three voyages from the Texas port of Galveston has also affected the Carnival Dream. Costa Maya, Belize, and Cozumel will now be included on sailings departing on February 6 and March 3, 2022, as well as April 30, 2023. The call to Honduras’ Mahogany Bay has been deleted.

Port Canaveral’s Mardi Gras
Finally, there is a shift in the Mardi Gras schedule, which is based out of Port Canaveral, Florida. The eight-day cruise, which departs on December 18, 2021, will now feature stops in Nassau, Bahamas, Amber Cove, Dominican Republic, San Juan, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. The previously planned stop at Grand Turk has been canceled.

Due to cruise ships not yet being able to return to Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos, this is the second itinerary adjustment for Mardi Gras in December 2022. Despite Carnival Cruise Line’s announcement that cruise ships will return this month, this has happened.
It’s crucial to double-check any itinerary modifications in the ticket information since port arrival and departure timings may have changed as well.
