Ships with canceled dates beyond March include Carnival Freedom, Carnival Miracle, Carnival Liberty (pictured here), Carnival Sunshine and Carnival Spirit
Carnival Cruise Line extended its pause for all US operations through March 31 and canceled some sailings beyond due to itinerary lengths and rescheduled drydocks.

Among the cancellations: Carnival Freedom sailings from Galveston through April 10, including a repositioning voyage from Galveston to Seattle and a 17-day Carnival Journeys cruise, which is not allowed under the current guidelines issued by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's seven-day limit.

Carnival Miracle from San Francisco and San Diego

Carnival Miracle cruises from San Diego and San Francisco are canceled through Sept. 16, including many 10-day and longer itineraries not allowed under the current CDC guidelines.

Rescheduled drydocks

Carnival Liberty cruises from Port Canaveral Sept. 17-Oct. 18 and Carnival Sunshine cruises from Charleston Oct. 11-Nov. 13 were dropped to accommodate rescheduled drydock work.

Carnival Spirit Singapore to Brisbane

Carnival Spirit’s 15-day cruise from Singapore to Brisbane on June 12 was canceled due to the current limitations on international travel in place in Australia.

Booked customers and travel agents are being notified directly with options for a generous future cruise credit and on-board credit package or a full refund.
