Carnival Cruise Lines will expand its short cruise offerings from Miami with the 2,052-passenger Carnival Imagination and 2,642-passenger Carnival Destiny operating new itineraries beginning next fall. The 70,000-ton Carnival Imagination – which will become the first Carnival ship to be completely remodeled under the line’s “Evolutions of Fun” enhancement program this fall – will sail on year-round three- and four-day cruises from Miami beginning Sept. 22, 2008.
Additionally, the Carnival Destiny will be the industry’s only 100,000-plus-ton-cruise ship to offer year-round four- and five-day cruises when it launches this program from Miami Sept. 27, 2008. This 101,353-ton “Fun Ship” will offer a one-of-a-kind vacation experience that will include four-day weekend cruises and five-day trips.
These new deployments represent the latest enhancements to Carnival’s popular three- to five-day cruise programs which comprise roughly half of the line’s departures.
“With an unmatched combination of convenience, value and affordability – and more departure points than ever before – our three- to five-day cruises continue to be in high demand,” said Vicki Freed, Carnival’s senior vice president of sales and marketing.
“‘Fun Ship’ cruising is all about choice and Carnival Destiny and Carnival Imagination – each of which offers unique on-board facilities and features – provides today`s busy consumers with exciting new cruise getaways on two popular Miami-based cruise programs,” she added.
