Carnival Cruise Line 2021 Summer Restart Operation Plans

6/11/2021

 
Carnival VistaCarnival Vista
      Yesterday Carnival Cruise Line announced additional operations plans for ships sailing out of Texas, Florida, California, and Washington as well as additional cancellations. The process of getting Carnival's fleet up and running is a gradual process because it takes time to get the crew back onboard and Carnival has to make sure the CDC's conditions for sailing are met. 
             Below is a list of by month of Carnival ships that currently have plans for a cruise re-start. The specific procedures for these sailings should be communicated to booked guests as well as posted on Carnival's website. As procedures, protocols, & itineraries are constantly changing you should check Carnival's website for the latest information as there is a chance by the time you read this something has likely changed.  Click Here to go to Carnival's Guest Protocols webpage (link will take you away from RyG's Cruise Guide). 

July 2021 Re-Start
  • The Carnival Vista is scheduled to resume cruises out of Galveston, Texas starting in July 2021. The Carnival Vista will be sailing 7 night cruises in July 2021 that are scheduled to visit Cozumel, Belize, and Roatan. The Carnival Vista's first cruise back in service is currently scheduled for Saturday, July 3, 2021.
  • The Carnival Breeze is scheduled to begin cruises again starting on Thursday, July 15, 2021 out of Galveston, Texas and will sail 4 & 5 night cruises.

  • Carnival Cruise Line announced its newest ship, Mardi Gras, is now scheduled to begin sailing seven night cruises from Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida starting on Saturday, July 31, 2021. The Mardi Gras' first sailings are considered to be pre-inaugural as the ship. It is unclear when the "official" inaugural voyage will be scheduled.
