Carnival Breeze's Dry-Dock Information:
Previous Wet-Dock: 2022 Year of Next Scheduled Dry-Dock: No Information Available Notes: The Carnival Breeze completed its 2022 dry-dock in April 2022 after being sent to dry-dock in Cadiz, Spain. During this dry-dock the Carnival Breeze received the red, white, & blue livery on the exterior of the ship. Carnival also used this dry-dock to expand the non-smoking casino on Deck 4 to add a bar area. This resulted in the removal of the Thrill Theater. Additionally, the dry-dock was used to complete routine maintenance & cosmetic enhancements around the ship. I just returned from the Carnival Breeze two weeks after this 2022 dry-dock ended.

The ship's funnel is modified until further notice and will not have the iconic whale tail sides and instead will have a vertical funnel for now. During this time for repairs the ship was not in a dry-dock, but was docked for work to be completed. Carnival Freedom is scheduled to resume sailing on Saturday, June 11, 2022. Click Here For A Picture Of The Carnival Freedom's Modified Funnel & Video Showing The Ship Other Dry-Dock Notes: The Carnival Freedom's last dry-dock was in 2019. During this dry-dock, Carnival added the WaterWorks and Bonsai Sushi Express. In addition, Carnival moved the mini golf course from Deck 12 to the back of Deck 11. This change should make getting to the mini golf course easier. Carnival also added an ADA lift from Deck 10 to Deck 11's back portion. These are a few of the changes made to the ship during this dry-dock that I am aware of. FOR PICTURES! My Carnival Freedom 2017 Seven Night Cruise Review From Galveston - Click Here To Read |

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.
