Carnival Corporation & plc announced today appointments within its global leadership team, naming two important figures to take over leading positions for Carnival UK and Carnival Australia.
Due to the ongoing impact caused by the Covid-19 pandemic as well as travel expenses, Carnival Cruise Line has made some changes to the crew travel policies. Crew members from several countries joining Carnival ships will now have fewer options to choose from the list of airports as a starting point to their journey back to the ship.
Just days before the final preparations of Carnival’s newest cruise ship Mardi Gras to set sail on the very first cruise, a tragedy struck the vessel leaving the crew deeply shaken by the death of a colleague. We are sad to report that a team member died of apparent suicide on the Mardi Gras.
Yesterday the cruise ship Carnival Breeze arrived at Costa Maya, one of the most beautiful cruise stops in the Caribbean after 16 months standstill imposed by COVID-19
Following the successful restart of operations with the Carnival Horizon, Carnival Vista and Carnival Breeze, Carnival Cruise Line announced today seven more ships will resume cruises by the end of October this year.
In September the cruise line plans to resume sailings on three ships including:
Carnival Cruise Line started its first cruise after almost 16 months from PortMiami, with the departure of Carnival Horizon on July 4. Carnival Horizon set sail at 4 p.m. from the cruise capital of the world for a six-day cruise with stops in Amber Cove, Dominican Republic and the private Bahamian island of Half Moon Cay.
Good Morning and Happy 4th Of July to all onboard the cruise ships sailing out of the USA and around the world. And what a happy day is today as we have some great news coming from the Carnival Cruise Line crew.
During the past year, the crew was not allowed to go out in ports and most of them haven’t step foot on land for the entire length of their contract. However, with the recent developments and vaccination of the shipboard employees, things are slowly starting to move in the right direction. I spoke with my fellow crew members to find out if the crew is allowed to go out in ports and if the cruise lines organize protected shore excursions for them.
No doubt the internet is one of the most important things for crew working onboard the cruise ships. The net is the window to the outside world, connecting the crew with their loved ones back home.
India's largest manning company providing highly skilled personnel for Carnival Corporation brands - Carnival Support Services India Pvt. Ltd. (CSSI), will conduct a COVID-19 vaccination drive in Mumbai for crew administrated by the company.
