The Carnival Luminosa has returned to service with a series of upgrades following an 18-day drydock in Singapore.
The enhancements include the addition of 99 new gaming machines to the casino, a brand-new Effy Jewelry store, refreshed Galleria Shops and a revitalized video arcade.
The ship will now resume its winter Australia season, offering three- to 14-day sailings from Singapore and Brisbane, before embarking on a 23-day Carnival Journeys transpacific voyage on April 6, 2027, to reposition to San Francisco.
Its San Francisco season starts on May 3, 2027, offering 10-day cruises to Alaska, along with extended weekend Thursday-to-Monday sailings to Baja Mexico throughout summer 2027.
Following the season in San Francisco, the ship will return to Brisbane, offering a variety of three- to nine-day itineraries, as well as a 14-day Carnival Journeys Mutiny on the Bounty & Fiji voyage.
As one of the two ships leaving the Australian market after the 2027-28 winter season, it will embark on a 23-day repositioning voyage to Long Beach on March 15, 2028.
After its Baltimore debut on Nov. 18, 2028, the ship will offer seven- to 14-day itineraries from the Mid-Atlantic through April 2029, including cruises to The Bahamas and Carnival Journeys voyages to the Southern Caribbean.
The cruise line added that details on the Luminosa’s summer 2028 deployment would be announced at a later date.
