The Port of New Orleans will host four ships for homeporting operations during the 2023-24 winter season.

In addition to the Carnival Glory and the Carnival Valor, which have been sailing year-round from the Louisiana port on a year-round basis since 2021, the homeport will serve as seasonal basis for two additional ships: the Norwegian Breakaway and the Disney Magic.
