Carnival Cruise to Switch Homeports for Liners Deployed in the U.S.

Carnival Cruise Lines will switch the homeport deployments of its 2,124-passenger Carnival Legend and Carnival Miracle beginning in spring 2007.

Carnival Legend, which currently sails from New York and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, will be deployed to Tampa to operate year-round seven-day western Caribbean voyages departing Sundays from that port beginning April 15, 2007.

Currently based in Tampa, Carnival Miracle will be relocated to New York and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to operate eight-day Caribbean cruises from those ports beginning April 25, 2007.

Since Carnival Miracle and Carnival Legend are sister ships, guests’ reservations will be automatically shifted to the new vessel with booking and stateroom numbers remaining the same.
