As you said earlier, you won't book the Connie out of Tampa because of its old age. I love the Tampa area, specifically St Pete Beach, and think the West Coast of Florida has some of the best beaches. However, most major metros have a Zoo, Aquarium, and dining; if given a choice, I'm not sure many tourists would prefer Busch Gardens over Universal/Disney. Currently, the Connie is sailing out of Tampa through early 2026
