Carnival to Swap Itineraries Operated on Fantasy, Sensation

Carnival Cruise Lines has permanently switched itineraries operated by the Fantasy and the Sensation, due to a technical issue with the propulsion system on the Sensation. The change went into effect Friday.

The ship is unable to operate at maximum cruising speed to complete five-day itineraries to the Bahamas and Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos, and will take over the Fantasy´s three- and four-day itineraries to the Bahamas. The Fantasy will take over the Sensation´s route.

The Fantasy and Sensation are sister ships with the same features, amenities, accommodations and layout, and passengers´ reservations will automatically change from one ship to the other; booking numbers and stateroom assignments will stay the same. Guests also can use their preexisting cruise documents.
