Carnival Cruise Line is continuing to reveal 2026/2027 itineraries of its ships. Most recently, the cruise line has released the schedules of Carnival Liberty and Carnival Valor from New Orleans, and Carnival Panorama from Long Beach.
Carnival Valor and Carnival Liberty will remain in New Orleans and sail various itineraries to the eastern, western and southern Caribbean and the Bahamas. Carnival Panorama will sail from Long Beach to popular destinations in the Mexican Riviera.
“The sailings we’re opening today showcase the diverse array of destinations and itineraries available to our guests. We believe variety is essential to allow guests to curate unforgettable cruises as they plan future vacations. New Orleans and Long Beach are vital to our homeport strategy, and bring great new options to our guests who sail from each port as we continue to broaden our overall cruise schedule for 2026-27,” said Fred Stein, vice president of itinerary planning for Carnival Cruise Line.
From New Orleans, where the cruise line recently welcomed its 7 millionth guest and celebrated 30 years of year-round sailing, Carnival Valor will continue to sail four- and five-day Western Caribbean cruises featuring stops in Cozumel and Progreso. Carnival Liberty will sail 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises featuring Belize, Mahogany Bay, Montego Bay, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Key West, and Nassau. The itineraries will include Carnival’s newest exclusive destination opening in 2025, Celebration Key, and Half Moon Cay which will be expanded in 2026. She will also sail two 6-day Western Caribbean sailings, two 8-day Eastern Caribbean sailings, and a unique 14-night Carnival Journeys bucket-list Panama Canal sailing in late November 2026.
Carnival Panorama has returned to Long Beach after her recent dry dock and upgrade in Singapore. She will continue to sail 6- and 8-day Mexican Riviera itineraries that feature Cabo San Lucas, Ensenada, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán and La Paz. While in dry dock, Carnival Panorama received several enhancements as well as new retail shops and a non-smoking casino.
