Carnival Fantasy Docked in Nassau Since 2011, Carnival Cruise Line has not deployed a ship to regularly sail from Mobile, Alabama. After the Carnival Elation left in 2011 for New Orleans, Mobile lost its year round Carnival cruise ship. However, that is about to change once again for the benefit of Mobile cruisers and the Mobile economy. Yesterday, September 23, 2015, Carnival announced plans to redeploy the Carnival Fantasy to Mobile. The Carnival Fantasy is currently scheduled to sail November 2016 - November 2017 from Mobile. During this time the ship will offer 4 day cruises to Cozumel and 5 day cruises to either Cozumel & Progreso or Cozumel & Costa Maya.
Prior to sailing to Mobile, the Carnival Fantasy will be renovated and upgraded. Carnival's Guy's Burger Joint, Blue Iguana Cantina, Red Frog Rum Bar, and Blue Iguana Tequila Bar will be added. In addition, the Carnival Fantasy was upgraded several years ago to have Carnival's WaterWorks, tropical themed lido pool, and the Serenity Adults Only Retreat. Carnival's travel agent website, GoCCL, currently shows this dry-dock is scheduled for 2/06/16 - 2/17/16. If these dates remain the same, this means the ship will be upgraded a few months before repositioning to Mobile, Alabama. However, this time frame, is subject to change because dry-dock schedules often shift.
