You Decide! Where do you want the new Carnival Vista to be homeported?

[jimbo5544]

Won't be sailing her if she ports in Miami. That is one of my least favorite ports.

Let's see, no east coast, no Miami....does not leave all that much does it? So what exactly is your favorite port?

[finals101]

I'm thinking LA or San Francisco because by the time the Vista debuts, the panama canal expansion should be completed and therefore won't have to go around South America

[dolphinsfan246]

Can we homeport her in Cincinnati Ohio?:D Haha just kidding of course, i voted for Miami as i believe she will replace the Breeze there in 2016.

Having the widening of the canal completed will certainly make the potential west coast (or anything other than east coast, for that matter) much easier to swallow. You bring up a good point, what if they put this ship in Southeast Asia:eek:

I predict that the Vista will go to Port Canaveral. The Sunshine will go to Miami and the Breeze will go to Australia with some different itineraries.

I am hoping for Fort Lauderdale.

1. Warmer climate

2. Cheaper to fly into (more money for excursions, drinks, etc...)

3. Allows for better itinerary than most of the U.S. homeports

They wont put a new ship in Asia........ YET:eek:

I've heard rumblings that the state of Georgia is trying to build a port in Savannah, I'd love for that to happen. Otherwise I'd say Charleston so we don't have to fly out every time we want to cruise.

About it goes Corpus Christi Texas our South Padre Island Texas

[Devonstar]

Barbados deserves a shot so let's home port it in Bridgetown, Barbados

[jimbo5544]

While I understand your wanting it (from where you live), I would not put up to much hope. Does not quite fit into their plan (if they have one). Who knows though....

[jimbo5544]

I think bridgeport CT would be a convenient port

No, it's gone. Not much there actually.

Thanks for the reply:)

[michelle1836]

I'll take NY. the only port left we can drive to after the Pride leaves Baltimore

[rtap23]

Has to be Miami

[rtap23]

Why is it your least favorite port. I find it to be so easy to get to. The port staff has always been fast and courteous to us and you can always come a little earlier and enjoy all the things Miami has to offer.

[MrBanana1240]

Anywhere in the NE would be fine by me!!!

[dz63]

 

Personally, my vote would be fore Toronto, but it is far less likely than Tampa.

 

Hey. . . I'm with you on that one . . . but then the itinerary would probably not be very desirable!

Port canaveral being that they will be lacking a large ship once the dream goes to New Orleans and they have expanded the port there in the last few years.

Is the Sunshine really that small?

Yes sunshine is smaller than the Dream.. Dream carries max around 4,000 while Sunshine only 3,500
