Carnival Cruise Line is bringing its “Fun Italian Style” product to more ports and destinations in 2027 as part of a series of deployment changes.
First introduced in 2023, the concept is available onboard the Carnival Venezia and the Carnival Firenze, which offer an Italian-themed experience along with Carnival’s signature features and service.
Currently sailing from Long Beach on a year-round basis, the Carnival Firenze will see the most changes in 2027, sailing from California to South America, the Caribbean and the U.S. Northeast.
After completing a final cruise from the Los Angeles area in early January, the 2021-built ship embarks on a series of repositioning voyages to South America.
The 14- to 16-night itineraries sail to destinations in Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil.
After debuting in Florida, the vessel is scheduled to arrive in Miami for a spring season starting in late February.
Sailing in the region for the first time, the Firenze offers a series of four- to 13-night cruises to the Western, Eastern and Southern Caribbean and the Bahamas.
The deployment runs through mid-May, when the 4,232-guest ship is set to reposition to New York City for the summer.
While itineraries are still to be announced, the vessel is expected to offer cruises to the Bahamas, the Caribbean, Bermuda and Canada.
After several years sailing from New York City and Port Canaveral, the Carnival Venezia is also on the move in 2027.
Upon completing a winter season sailing from its Central Florida homeport, the 2019-built ship is set to reposition to Miami.
The Venezia kicks off a year-round deployment from the port in late May, starting a series of six- and eight-night cruises to the Western, Southern and Eastern Caribbean.
Originally built for Costa Cruises, the Carnival Firenze and the Carnival Venezia were transferred to Carnival Cruise Line in 2023 and 2024, respectively.
With a design similar to the company’s Vista-class ships, the vessels offer interiors inspired by the Italian cities of Florence and Venice.
