Carnival Miracle The Carnival Luminosa is scheduled to start sailing for Carnival Cruise Line in November 2022 from Brisbane, Australia. Prior to joining Carnival Cruise Line the ship was the Costa Luminosa and sailed for Costa Cruises since 2009. In September 2022 the Costa Luminosa will be officially transferred to Carnival Cruise Line and a dry-dock will take place.
Due to the short length of time before entering service, Carnival is keeping much of the Costa architecture onboard. The ship's Costa funnel will be kept onboard, but repainted red, white, & blue. This funnel will be similar to the original Mardi Gras, Carnivale, and Festivale. On the interior of the ship Carnival will be making some changes in order to adapt or add some Carnival features that can be added in a limited amount of time.
The goal of this post is to share some of the features that are expected to be added during the Carnival Luminosa's dry-dock as well as answer common questions about the Carnival Luminosa.
