St. Kitts is on the itinerary when Carnival Cruise Line’s ship, the 2,124-passenger “Carnival Miracle,” repositioned to the Southern Caribbean in late 2007.
The liner has announced that following its eight-day cruise program from New York, “Carnival Miracle” will reposition to Fort Lauderdale for alternating eight-day “exotic” southern and “exotic” western Caribbean cruises beginning October 22, 2007.
Carnival Cruise Lines will switch the homeport deployments of its 2,124-passenger Super Liners 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.
Pearl Seas Cruises, a new offshoot of small-ship operator American Cruise Lines, signed contracts with Irving Shipbuilding in Halifax, Canada’s Nova Scotia, to build two new luxury cruise ships.
According to a statement, Pearl Seas said the two new ships will carry 165 and 210 passengers and would be ready for service in July 2008 and June 2009, respectively. The line also plans to build a third, larger ship, according to company spokesman Jamie Murrett.

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. will shell out at least $698 million for a third ship to expand capacity on its luxury Celebrity Cruises line.
German shipbuilder Meyer Werft will construct the 118,000 gross-ton vessel, Miami-based Royal Caribbean said last week. Each of the three planned Solstice-class vessels will hold 2,850 passengers, compared with the 2,000-person capacity of Celebrity’s four Millennium ships.
