Carnival Cruise
Line Joins Industrywide Pause In U.S. Through October 31
MIAMI, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Consistent with the
decision announced today by the members of the Cruise Lines
International Association (CLIA) to voluntarily extend the pause in
U.S. cruise embarkations until Oct. 31,
2020, Carnival Cruise Line has informed guests and travel
advisors that we have cancelled all cruises scheduled to embark
between Oct. 1 and Oct. 31.
Guests are being offered an enhanced value package of a future
cruise credit and onboard credit, or a full refund.
If conditions in the U.S. change and short and modified sailings
are possible, the industry may consider an earlier restart, and we
would consider that as well. In the meantime, we will
continue to work with public health and government officials to
finalize enhanced health and sanitation protocols and procedures
that will guide our eventual return to service.
We thank our guests for their continued patience and support as
we work through these difficult decisions. When the time is
right, our terrific onboard team will be waiting to welcome our
guests back to give them the great vacation they deserve.
