Carnival, Did You Know, Itineraries
Starting on May 18, 2010, Carnival will introduce the first year-round cruise schedule from Charleston, S.C., with the deployment of the 2,056-passenger Carnival Fantasy. Carnival Fantasy will operate from the Passenger Terminal in historic downtown Charleston.
Charleston's centralized location within the southeastern U.S., as well as the city's strong appeal as a tourist destination, were key factors in the decision to launch year-round service. The Carnival Fantasy is expected to carry more than 140,000 passengers annually from the port.
Carnival Fantasy will operate five-, six- and seven-day voyages on a variety of different departure days. Five-day voyages departing Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays will call at Nassau and Freeport, The Bahamas. Six-day voyages departing Saturdays will visit Freeport, Nassau and Key West, Fla. Seven-day voyages depart Saturdays and will feature Grand Turk, the private Bahamian island of Half Moon Cay, and Nassau.
Replacing the Carnival Fantasy in Mobile will be its sister ship, the 2,052-passenger Carnival Elation, which will reposition from San Diego to launch year-round service from that port May 15, 2010.
With the addition of Charleston, Carnival will operate from 12 year-round homeports which are among the line's 20 North American departure points - the most in cruising.

Carnival Dream will also feature the largest Serenity adults-only retreat in our fleet. The two-level, 11,250-square-foot facility will offer seven different kinds of seating, as well as a bar on the lower level and two whirlpools on the upper level.
Carnival Dream will debut with a series of 12-day Mediterranean cruises followed by a trans-Atlantic crossing and two eight-day voyages from New York. Carnival Dream will reposition to Port Canaveral, Florida, for a special nine-day cruise then launch year-round seven-day Caribbean service December 12.

August 28, 2008... Carnival Cruise Lines will deploy the "Fun Ship" Carnival Elation on a new three- and four-day cruise schedule from San Diego beginning February 12, 2009.
