While requirements for sailing have changed for most destinations, some remain for Colombia, Haiti, & Honduras. Here are our updated protocols for sailings visiting these destinations. Should there be any changes, we are committed to keeping you informed.

Vaccination
We recommend that guests be fully vaccinated and boostered against COVID‐19. While vaccination is not required, we kindly ask you disclose your status during check-in.

Testing Required
Pre-cruise
All unvaccinated guests ages 12 and older must present a negative COVID-19 test result taken within 3 days prior to sailing. Fully vaccinated guests and guests ages 11 and younger are exempt.

Accepted Tests
Guests can take advantage of in-person, telehealth, and self-swab tests. This includes unsupervised testing. Proof of a negative test can be the printed or digital results, a clear photo of your self-test result, or your actual self-test in hand. To learn more about our accepted tests, visit our FAQ.

Travel Reminder
All guests should check their visa and ESTA requirements prior to our sailing.

Dear Carnival Guest,

We are looking forward to welcoming you on your upcoming Carnival cruise.

Consistent with the evolving public health guidelines, we have continued to update our protocols over the last several weeks. In summary, vaccines, proof of vaccination, and testing for unvaccinated guests, are no longer required on cruises of 15 nights or less. However, we encourage all guests 5 years and older to take a pre-cruise test within three days of their cruise.

For the most updated information, please visit Carnival.com and carefully read all pre-cruise Know Before You Go communications. Please note, a VeriFLY pass is no longer necessary for check-in.

While the cruise industry continues its return to normal operations, our commitment to the health and safety of our guests and crew and the communities we serve remain our top priority. Please make sure you are fit to sail and in good health as you prepare for your cruise. Then we’ll do the rest to make sure you have a great vacation.

On behalf of all of us at Carnival, thank you for your understanding and loyalty. See you soon!

Sincerely,
Carnival Cruise Line

UPDATE REGARDING DOCUMENT OF RECOVERY FROM COVID-19
BERMUDA CRUISES THROUGH DEC. 31, 2022

Dear Cruisers:
We have an important update for you. Bermudian health officials have informed us that a document of recovery from COVID-19 (within 3 months of sailing) is not acceptable in lieu of the required pre-cruise test. This means, you must present the negative result of a COVID-19 test, taken within the specified time outlined on our Have Fun. Be Safe. protocols page. This applies to both vaccinated and unvaccinated guests.

Regrettably, guests who are not in compliance with this requirement will be denied boarding and no refund will be provided. Please visit our Have Fun. Be Safe. COVID-19 protocols page on Carnival.com for full details.

Thank you for your support and understanding. Our entire team is preparing to make these cruises fun and memorable for everyone.

Sincerely,
Carnival Cruise Lines

GUEST OPERATIONS UPDATE – JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 2022 SAILINGS

October 6, 2022

Dear Carnival Guest:

With 17 ships scheduled to return to service by the end of the year, we are very pleased with the progress we are making returning to guest operations. Our vaccinated voyages have been operating very successfully and feedback from the many guests who have sailed with us these past few months continues to be overwhelmingly positive.

As we look ahead to the new year, we have identified plans for the first two ships that will restart – Carnival Sunshine from Charleston on January 13, and Carnival Liberty from Port Canaveral on February 11.

The following ships will operate through February 28, 2022, including your cruise.
Galveston: Carnival Breeze, Carnival Dream and Carnival Vista
Miami: Carnival Freedom, Carnival Horizon, Carnival Sunrise and Carnival Conquest
Port Canaveral: Mardi Gras, Carnival Elation, Carnival Magic and Carnival Liberty (effective 2/11)
New Orleans: Carnival Glory and Carnival Valor
Long Beach: Carnival Panorama, Carnival Radiance and Carnival Miracle
Baltimore: Carnival Legend
Tampa: Carnival Pride
Charleston: Carnival Sunshine (effective 1/13)
We will be operating our cruises in January and February as vaccinated cruises with our current protocols. We will continue to keep you informed with information on our protocols as things evolve. We are optimistic that vaccines will be approved and available for children between 5 and 11 years of age before the end of the year enabling us to welcome more of our families with young children back on board! Please watch for our next email or visit the Have Fun. Be Safe. page on Carnival.com where we will post our most updated information.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through our restart plans. We look forward to welcoming you on board.

Sincerely,


Christine Duffy
President, Carnival Cruise Line
