'Our cruises to Cuba have been very well received and we’re delighted to provide our guests with additional opportunities to experience and explore this fascinating and sought-after destination,' Carnival president Christine Duffy said.
Earlier this year, Carnival announced a series of four- and five-day Havana voyages that kicked off in late June. Upcoming departures in the initial program include four-day cruises on Aug. 24, Sept. 7 and 21, and Oct. 5 and 19, 2017, as well as May 3, 2018, and five-day voyages on Aug. 28, Sept. 25 and Oct. 9, 2017.
Carnival Paradise offers nearly 20 shore excursions that showcase Cuba’s culture, beauty and centuries-old architectural landmarks. Aboard ship are newly added Cuban-themed entertainment and activities.
The Havana visits comply with US regulations for people-to-people travel.
