Carnival Vista 2019 Wet-Dock: The Carnival Vista was taken out of service in July 2019 to complete repairs to the ship's azipods. According to John Heald, Carnival's brand ambassador, the scope of this dry-dock was limited to repairs. Based on this information it does not sound like anything changed for guest areas. Carnival cancelled three cruises (7/6, 7/13, and 7/20) and during this time the ship went to Freeport, Bahamas, for the repair work. Due to a lack of available facilities at the Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport, Carnival contracted with a Netherlands based company named Boskalis that deployed a floating dry-dock facility to the Bahamas. 1.
