Carnival Cruise Line has unveiled its schedule for cruise itineraries spanning from 2026 to 2027. These new voyages will set sail from several U.S. homeports, including Baltimore, Galveston, Port Canaveral, and Miami.
Many of the proposed routes will include stops at the expanded Half Moon Cay, a private retreat owned by the cruise line in the Bahamas.
Departing From Miami
Experience the beauty of the Eastern and Western Caribbean with seven-day cruises on the Carnival Celebration. This Excel-class ship will visit destinations such as San Juan, St. Thomas, Mahogany Bay, Cozumel, Amber Cove, Nassau, and Grand Turk in the spring of 2027.
Passengers will also have the opportunity to enjoy unique locations in the Bahamas, including Half Moon Cay and the soon-to-open Celebration Key.
From Port Canaveral
On weeklong itineraries, the Mardi Gras will navigate through the Caribbean and Carnival’s exclusive Bahamian resorts. Up to spring 2027, these trips will include stops at Mahogany Bay, Cozumel, Nassau, Amber Cove, and Grand Turk.
Carnival’s “Italian-style ship,” the Carnival Venezia, will offer similar routes during its seasonal seven-day travels.
For those seeking more extended vacations, passengers can book 14-day Carnival Journeys, which will visit Antigua, St. Kitts, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, Dominica, Barbados, Grenada, Curacao, and Aruba.
From Galveston
The Carnival Jubilee will embark on weeklong voyages to Costa Maya, Mahogany Bay, and Cozumel. Beginning in September 2026, shorter six-day trips will also be available to Mahogany Bay and Cozumel, along with eight-day cruises to Celebration Key, Half Moon Cay, and Nassau.
Carnival Dream will feature Caribbean sailings of six, seven, eight, and 14 days, with several cruises stopping at Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay. The longer itineraries will include stops at destinations like Barbados, Ocho Rios, St. Kitts, St. Thomas, St. Croix, and St. Maarten.
The Carnival Breeze will operate four- to eight-day cruises to Mexico, with the shortest route heading to Cozumel and the five-day trip including a visit to Progreso in Yucatan. The Dream-class vessel’s longest journey will visit Costa Maya, Grand Cayman, and Montego Bay.
From Baltimore
The Spirit-class ship will offer three 14-day Carnival Journeys—one will cruise to Greenland and Canada while two will explore Caribbean spots like Tortola, Barbados, Aruba, and more.
Moreover, shorter, seven-day cruises from Baltimore will take passengers to Princess Cays or Half Moon Cay, Celebration Key, and Nassau.
Celebration Key
Carnival Cruise Line is set to debut Celebration Key, its latest resort in the Bahamas, coinciding with these new itineraries.
Scheduled to open in July 2025, the cruise line shared details and designs of the $600 million resort last June. Among its key features will be the Starfish Lagoon, designed around one of the largest freshwater lagoons in the area.
