Consequently, guests on 18 Carnival Breeze sailings from Fort Lauderdale scheduled to operate from November 7th are being notified that their cruises have been cancelled.

Finally, Carnival Magic’s transatlantic and European itineraries from March 13th to May 3rd next year have been cancelled.

“We continue to assess the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on global commerce, public health and our cruise operations.

“In addition to our current pause in service, there have been many other unintended consequences, including shipyard, dry dock and ship delivery delays, and related changes to our deployment plans for our fleet,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. 

“While we had hoped to make up construction time on Mardi Gras over the summer, it’s clear we will need extra time to complete this magnificent ship. 

“We share our guests’ disappointment and appreciate their patience as we work through this unprecedented time in our business and the lives of so many people.
