    If the Islander is successful, I think they look to add a third ship and HomePort it out of Port Canaveral or Jacksonville and do longer cruises to the Bahamas, Key West and the Eastern Caribbean.

    When do they start doing 7 day cruises?

    Anyone sailing on her today?

    So her first cruise is Friday, is she arriving in Tampa today or tomorrow and will just sit at the pier?

    Those Fantasy class ships that are now scrap would be over 30 years old if Carnival kept some of them or if they got purchased by MAS. The Paradise and Elation are now 26. Odds seem like a Costa ship might be available soon as that fleet keeps dwindling. Keep the Islander out of Tampa and a third ship can go out of Jacksonville for longer cruises (Key West & Grand Turk?) assuming it'll fit.

    @DELTABLUE ODYSSEY: Jamie Fentiman 3-10-24 #1278, Ana Ribeiro 5-5-24 #1414, Ricky Matthews 1-17-24/1-16-25 #1273 For my Jan. 5, 2025 Odyssey cruise, that means Ana will be the CD? And that's her last assignment?

    Sounds right. The upcoming Carnival Pride cruise will leave from Norfolk on May 19 but returning to Baltimore on May 26.
  11. toad455
    Interesting. So if anyone parks at Norfolk for departure, is Carnival busing then back to Norfolk from Baltimore on 5/26?
  12. toad455
    So is the May 19 Pride cruise sailing out of Norfolk?
  13. toad455
    So is this May 12 cruise returning to Baltimore on May 19? Sounds like they might be able to.

    Why is Carnival giving guests just 4 days notice?? I saw Heald's post yesterday and thought their late decision making is extremely poor on them.

    Puerto Plata has a lot of unpaved roads. In January, I nearly threw my back out because of the rough trip to our beach. If I ever return there, I would just hang out at the pool that's right at the pier.

    The issue would be that this "World" cruise would have to use a Spirit-class ship. Alaska/Hawaii gets one, Tampa gets one, Mobile gets one for 6 months, and Baltimore another. Stretches this class a little thin.
  17. toad455
    Might be time to scrap this ship.
  18. toad455
    Seems like either Grand Turk or Puerto Plata are the usual substitutes unless it's a short itinerary. I'm sure Royal would prefer two ships at CocoCay everyday, but Grand Turk is a better destination as you can spread out more. I guess RCCL is paying Carnival to use the port?
  19. toad455
    Which is odd for Carnival to be announcing one cruise at a time. Carnival should just say cruises until the end of May will be moved to Norfolk.

    Costa has 9 ships left in their fleet with no new builds planned. Their oldest ship, the Fortuna, is now 21 years old. Maybe they get the old Mediterranea from Adora cruises in a few years if that cruise line doesn't start to get off the ground?
  21. toad455
    He just got off but has hinted he'll be back shortly. Didn't speculate as to what ship though.
  22. toad455
    Paradise and Elation will be 30 years old in 2028. I wonder if any of the Costa ships might bounce over to Carnival by then. Costa seems to be slowly disappearing.
  23. toad455
    I don't think the Vision left on time today out of Norfolk(5pm). Probably closer to 6:30pm. The Carnival Legend was also late leaving on Monday(~7pm).
  24. toad455
    Vision is officially docked in Norfolk!
  25. toad455
    John Heald posted that they're remaining hopefully that the Pride's repo cruise will end in Baltimore. Good for Carnival for being optimistic.
