Your guide to Carnival Cruise Line – what you need to know

Author: Susan Johnson

Published on: 01 June 2022

Updated on: 01 June 2022

Carnival Cruise Line is an affordable cruise line that emphasizes quirky fun. If you are sailing on Carnival for the first time, you’re sure to have some questions about what the experience is like.

Carnival Cruise Line is a major cruise line that has been around since 1972.

The brand is popular with families who travel on a budget, alongside being famous for onboard attractions such as water parks, cooking classes, casinos and more.

With the aim to cater to travellers looking for a fun experience than high-end luxury, Carnival cruise ships offer a laid-back, family-friendly vibe.

This is what you need to know about Carnival Cruise Line.

Carnival Firenze christened in Long Beach

American actor jonathon bennett named godfather of carnival firenze, carnival cruise line to add fourth excel-class ship, carnival cruise line shares details about celebration key, service dog earns diamond status with carnival cruise line after sailing 55 cruises, carnival cruise line reveals carnival celebration first look – what’s onboard, carnival cruise line reveals ship restart dates - as more cruises cancelled, carnival cruise line announces cruise start dates but more sailings cancelled, carnival cruise line cancels cruises - when will international sailings resume, carnival cruise line to debut new ship in southampton, meet the carnival cruise line fleet.

Carnival’s fleet comprises 24 ships and, based on the ship, your ideal holiday can vary greatly. Carnival Sensation , built-in 1993 and sailing from Alabama, is one of the cruise line’s oldest and smallest ships. Though it was later refurbished, it is still smaller and offers fewer amenities than Carnival’s newer ships.

The newer Vista-class ships including Carnival Horizon are twice the size of the Carnival Fantasy and hold a lot more features – from restaurants and larger venues to IMAX theatres, as well as the Havana Bar, pool area, and more.

- READ MORE: What’s onboard Carnival Celebration cruise ship? -

Carnival cruise ship Mardi Gras is part of Carnival’s Excel Class. It joined the fleet in 2021 and took things to the next level. Nearly $1billion was spent to build it. With the ability to carry around 6,500 passengers, it was the first cruise ship to hold a roller-coaster, alongside other amenities such as new eateries. Carnival cruise ships Celebration and Jubilee are also included in the same class and are sister ships to Mardi Gras.

Nearly two-thirds of Carnival’s fleet were built around the year 2000 and later. And these ships offer more of everything to passengers.

Carnival cruises ports and itineraries

Apart from their private island destinations, cruise lines mostly sail to the same ports. So, regardless of the cruise line you choose to sail with, you will usually come across similar ports of call.

Carnival cruises sail to the Caribbean , Bahamas , as well as Mexico and Alaska , among many others. Voyages that depart from Florida ports go either of the two ways – east to the Bahamas (with stops in Nassau, Freeport, or nearby ports) or to the Southwest, taking passengers to the Caribbean and Yucatan. The popular ports here include Cozumel , Jamaica and Grand Cayman.

- READ MORE: Jamaica Port Guide: A complete guide of what to see & do in Jamaica -

Carnival cruises that sail from the Gulf Coast (Mobile, Galveston or New Orleans) often head to the Yucatan and Southern Caribbean. Ports of call include Costa Maya, Belize , Cozumel, Progreso and Roatan.

Alaskan Carnival cruises depart from Seattle, stopping in Canada and other ports in Alaska. Sailing from Los Angeles means shorter trips to the western Mexico ports like Ensenada.

Carnival Cruise Line also offers shorter cruises in addition to the classic seven-day journeys. A lot of their voyages are three to five days in length, making them an ideal cruise line for those in search of a quick and inexpensive getaway.

Gratuities on Carnival cruises

As with most other cruise lines, you have to pay gratuities when sailing on board Carnival. You will typically be billed automatically before you set foot on the ship.

Currently, the pricing runs around £10 per person, per day. So, you will be paying approximately an extra £53 per person in addition to your five-day cruise fare. The amount for suites is circa £12 per person, and all passengers except children under two years are charged these amounts.

Dress code on Carnival cruises

You can wear casual clothes most of the time onboard Carnival Cruises. Think long skirts and trousers, dresses and tops for women, shorts, polo shirts, and t-shirts for men. Flat shoes with rubber soles and low heel are ideal as the decks can be slippery. When heading to grab meals, something more elegant will be ideal.

On most evenings, the dress code is Cruise Casual. Men can wear dress trousers, elegant shorts, jeans, or polo shirts, whereas women can be comfortable in casual dresses, skirts or trousers, and blouses, elegant shorts, summer dresses, or jeans. However, tracksuit trousers, flip-flops, basketball shorts, bathing clothes, or cut-off jeans aren’t allowed.

On one or two evenings, the dress code changes to Cruise Elegant. You can seize this opportunity to dress up on these evenings in suits, tuxedos, evening gowns, or trouser suits.

Cruise Deals with Carnival Cruise Line

Carnival cabins and suites.

Carnival cruises offer several accommodation options. So, regardless of your preferences, you will find a suitable cabin type. Some staterooms can be configured to accommodate more people too. Other rooms come with an extra half-bathroom, connecting rooms, or modifications to suit accessibility needs.

- READ MORE: How to choose the best cabins for your needs -

• Interior Cabins – The most affordable cruising option, these are the smallest rooms without any windows or balconies.
• Ocean View – Larger than staterooms, Ocean View cabins come with a window and can fit up to five people.

Learn More About Our New Season of 2025 Europe Cruises

Our newest ship in Europe, Celebrity Ascent℠, visits a new port of call, Bar, Montenegro—a charming port city that offers a blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. If Iceland is on your bucket-list, we’re adding a new port of call there as well, the quaint village of Djupivogur. This coastal gem has Viking origins, so if you’re looking for something off the beaten path, this is the place for you. We’re also adding round-trip sailings from Reykjavik for even more opportunities to explore this must-see destination. We’re also returning to Trondheim, Norway, and although it’s not a new port for us, we haven’t been there for more than 20 years, so it feels like new. This picturesque town is nestled in Trondheim fjord and is equal parts medieval and modern. We’re also returning to Amsterdam, the heart of the Netherlands, as a homeport, so you’ll have the opportunity before or after your sailing—or both—to discover all the wonders this modern city with a small-town vibe has to offer.

To be even more immersed in the local culture of the places you visit, we’ve added more overnight stays to give you a taste of the nightlife as well as offering more port visits of 12 hours or longer, so you can do and see even more while ashore. To get an incredibly in-depth experience in Europe, you can take a grand tour of up to 28 days, without repeating a single city, aboard Celebrity Equinox®. Simply book back-to-back itineraries, step aboard, and begin the journey of a lifetime. In fact, with six ships, six departure ports, and a wide variety of itineraries ranging from 7 to 11 nights that visit more than 23 countries, and 98 ports of call, you’re sure to find the perfect vacation in Europe to satisfy the explorer within.

Want to experience the best of Europe with time to experience everything our indulgent ships have to offer? Check that transatlantic crossing off your bucket list. Our new transatlantic itineraries begin in, and visit some of, the best cities in Europe, while giving you all the time you need to do everything you want on board—or simply relax, rejuvenate, and watch the brilliant ocean scenery, while you sail across the great Atlantic Ocean.
