Carnival Cruise Line recently announced that it’s deploying the Carnival Miracle and the Carnival Spirit in Alaska in the summer of 2026.

According to a press release, the two Spirit-class vessels will offer different itineraries departing from Seattle.

A third ship will offer cruises to Alaska and Canada, departing from San Francisco in 2026, with additional details and itineraries to be revealed this fall, the company added.

Repositioning from Tampa, the Carnival Miracle starts its summer program on April 27, 2026.

Following a ten-night cruise to the Inside Passage, the ship kicks off a series of regular seven-night itineraries on May 7, 2026.

Sailing from Seattle every Thursday, the cruises sail to the Tracy Arm Fjord and include visits to Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan, as well as Victoria.

Before completing its schedule in the region in late September, the ship also offers a nine-night cruise that, according to Carnival, gives guests more time to explore Alaska with an additional visit to Sitka.

Completing a trans-Canal cruise that starts in Mobile, the Carnival Spirit arrives in Seattle on April 28, 2026.

The ship’s 2026 season in Alaska includes regular seven-night cruises that also sail to British Columbia in Canada.

The itinerary includes scenic cruising at the Tracy Arm Fjord, as well as stops in Skagway, Juneau, Ketchikan and Victoria.

Before returning to Mobile in early October, the Spirit also offers a 15-day round-trip Carnival Journeys cruise to Hawaii, with stops in Honolulu, Oahu; Nawiliwili, Kauai; Kahului, Maui; and Hilo, Hawaii, as well as Victoria.

In addition to part of its itineraries in Alaska, Carnival also announced deployment plans for Europe in 2026, with the Carnival Legend spending the summer in the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.

The company also revealed summer itineraries in the Caribbean for some of its ships, including the Carnival Jubilee, the Mardi Gras and the Carnival Celebration.
