Carnival Cruise Lines’ 113,300-ton Carnival Splendor—the line’s newest and largest “Fun Ship”—made its U.S. debut Friday, Nov. 14, 2008, when it arrived at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, FL following a 16-day trans-Atlantic crossing from Europe.Carnival Splendor has kicked off its Fort Lauderdale-based program with a series of three one-time voyages: a 2-day cruise to Nassau Nov. 15-17, a 4-day Bahamas/Turks & Caicos cruise Nov. 17-21 and an 8-day eastern Caribbean voyage Nov. 21-29.
Then, beginning Nov. 29, the ship will embark on a series of 10 seven-day eastern Caribbean voyages featuring four highly popular ports of call, including Casa de Campo/La Romana, Dominican Republic; St. Thomas/St. John, U.S.V.I.; San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Nassau, The Bahamas.
Finally, Carnival Splendor will operate a series of 14- to 18-day South America cruises—a first for Carnival. The ship will then launch year-round 7-day Mexican Riviera cruises from Long Beach, Calif., beginning in March 2009.
