--- title: "Carnival Cruise Line" url: https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line description: "Fun for All. All for Fun" --- # Carnival Cruise Line > Fun for All. All for Fun ## At a Glance - **Ships:** 29 - **Top Regions:** US East Coast, Bahamas, Caribbean - **Headquarters:** Miami, Florida - **Style:** Family, Value, Casual - **Rating:** 7.2/5 ## About Carnival moves more passengers per year than any other cruise line, and the formula is straightforward: keep the ships fun, keep the prices accessible, and sail from ports people can actually drive to. The fleet covers 25+ ships departing from more North American homeports than anyone else, including Galveston, New Orleans, Jacksonville, Baltimore, Long Beach, and the big three in Florida. The newer Excel-class ships (Mardi Gras, Carnival Celebration, Carnival Jubilee) brought the first roller coaster at sea, a zone-based layout that replaced the old open-plan design, and food partnerships with Emeril Lagasse and Guy Fieri. Most routes are short Caribbean hops of 3 to 7 nights, with longer options to Alaska, Hawaii, and Europe. The onboard vibe skews younger and more relaxed than most lines. No formal night, no pretense. It's more pool party than piano bar. ## Did You Know? - Carnival Mardi Gras was the first cruise ship to put a roller coaster at sea. BOLT runs along an 800-foot track on the top deck. - Guy Fieri's Burger Joint is the single most visited restaurant across the entire Carnival fleet. They serve over 2 million burgers a year. - Carnival sails from 14 US homeports, more than any other cruise line. That includes cities like New Orleans and Galveston that most competitors don't touch. ## Fleet | Ship | Year | Passengers | Tonnage | Decks | Sailings | |------|------|------|------|------|------| | [Carnival Tropicale](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-tropicale.md) | 2028 | 5,374 | 184,000 GT | 20 | 56 | | [Carnival Festivale](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-festivale.md) | 2027 | 6,619 | 182,015 GT | 20 | 51 | | [Carnival Jubilee](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-jubilee.md) | 2023 | 5,362 | 183,521 GT | 20 | 130 | | [Carnival Celebration](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-celebration.md) | 2022 | 5,362 | 183,521 GT | 20 | 72 | | [Carnival Firenze](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-firenze.md) | 2021 | 4,126 | 135,156 GT | 14 | 67 | | [Carnival Mardi Gras](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-mardi-gras.md) | 2020 | 6,631 | 180,800 GT | 20 | 104 | | [Carnival Panorama](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-panorama.md) | 2019 | 4,008 | 133,500 GT | 15 | 130 | | [Carnival Venezia](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-venezia.md) | 2019 | 4,090 | 135,225 GT | 14 | 69 | | [Carnival Horizon](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-horizon.md) | 2018 | 3,960 | 133,500 GT | 15 | 142 | | [Carnival Vista](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-vista.md) | 2016 | 3,934 | 133,500 GT | 15 | 78 | | [Carnival Breeze](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-breeze.md) | 2012 | 3,690 | 130,000 GT | 15 | 86 | | [Carnival Magic](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-magic.md) | 2011 | 3,690 | 130,000 GT | 15 | 74 | | [Carnival Dream](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-dream.md) | 2009 | 3,646 | 130,000 GT | 15 | 179 | | [Carnival Luminosa](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-luminosa.md) | 2009 | 2,826 | 92,720 GT | 12 | 24 | | [Carnival Freedom](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-freedom.md) | 2007 | 2,980 | 110,000 GT | 13 | 135 | | [Carnival Liberty](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-liberty.md) | 2005 | 2,974 | 110,000 GT | 13 | 77 | | [Carnival Miracle](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-miracle.md) | 2004 | 2,124 | 88,500 GT | 12 | 59 | | [Carnival Valor](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-valor.md) | 2004 | 2,980 | 110,000 GT | 13 | 87 | | [Carnival Glory](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-glory.md) | 2003 | 2,980 | 110,000 GT | 13 | 117 | | [Carnival Conquest](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-conquest.md) | 2002 | 2,980 | 110,000 GT | 13 | 114 | | [Carnival Legend](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-legend.md) | 2002 | 2,134 | 88,500 GT | 12 | 82 | | [Carnival Pride](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-pride.md) | 2002 | 2,134 | 88,500 GT | 12 | 72 | | [Carnival Adventure](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-adventure.md) | 2001 | 3,420 | 108,865 GT | 14 | 20 | | [Carnival Spirit](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-spirit.md) | 2001 | 2,124 | 88,500 GT | 12 | 107 | | [Carnival Radiance](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-radiance.md) | 2000 | 2,984 | 101,509 GT | 13 | 218 | | [Carnival Sunrise](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-sunrise.md) | 1999 | 3,873 | 101,509 GT | 13 | 108 | | [Carnival Elation](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-elation.md) | 1998 | 2,190 | 71,909 GT | 10 | 194 | | [Carnival Paradise](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-paradise.md) | 1998 | 2,124 | 71,925 GT | 10 | 112 | | [Carnival Sunshine](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/carnival-cruise-line/carnival-sunshine.md) | 1996 | 3,002 | 102,853 GT | 13 | 71 | ## Browse - [All Cruise Lines](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines.md) - [Carnival Cruise Line Cruises](https://cruisello.com/cruises.md?ships=carnival-cruise-line)
