Carnival Cruise Line Opens Bookings For 2028-29 Miami Sailings

Carnival Cruise Line has opened bookings for its April 2028 to April 2029 Miami schedule, which includes 346 sailings across five ships.

From Miami, sailings are available to the eastern, western, and southern Caribbean, along with the Bahamas. The schedule includes 217 visits to Celebration Key, Carnival Cruise Line’s new exclusive destination on Grand Bahama Island.

Ships include Carnival Celebration, Carnival Conquest, Carnival Magic, Carnival Vista, and Carnival Venezia. Itineraries range from quick three-night getaways to longer 11-night Carnival Journeys cruises, visiting 22 destinations across the Caribbean and Bahamas.

Short Getaways & Week-Long Sailings

Those seeking a quick escape can choose from 174 three to five-night sailings aboard Carnival Conquest and Carnival Magic. The itineraries include visits to Nassau, Grand Turk, Celebration Key, and Carnival Corporation’s private island Half Moon Cay.

Carnival Celebration, one of Carnival’s biggest Excel-class ships, will continue offering week-long eastern and western Caribbean voyages. Sailings visit places including Amber Cove, San Juan, St. Thomas, Cozumel, and Isla Tropicale (Roatán).

Southern Caribbean & Longer Voyages

Travelers seeking a longer voyage can choose from a variety of southern Caribbean sailings aboard Carnival Vista and Carnival Venezia, which offer 39 eight-night southern Caribbean cruises. Port calls include Aruba and Curaçao, with most also visiting Bonaire. Together, these islands make up what is called the “ABC Islands.”

Carnival Conquest will also offer two special 11-night Carnival Journeys cruises to the southern Caribbean. The sailings feature calls to destinations including Antigua, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, Guadeloupe, St. Maarten, and St. Thomas.

Carnival Journeys cruises are not only special because they’re longer, but also because they include exclusive events on board. These include:

• Academy of Fun: A series of enrichment courses focusing on topics like photography, celestial navigation, and social media
• Crew Connections: A behind-the-scenes look at life aboard the ship during a Q&A, dance class, and deck party
• Throwback Sea Day: Passengers can turn time back to the 80s with themed trivia, bingo, a dance class, action and adventure movies, and more
