“Carnival is the number one cruise operator from the West Coast, and these new programs from San Francisco and San Diego, as well as the deployment of the brand new Carnival Panorama from Long Beach, speaks volumes to our confidence in growing this important market.”
The Spirit-class vessel’s first ever cruise from San Francisco will depart on March 19, 2020. The deployment will include 4-day cruises to Ensenada which will depart on Thursdays during the spring and summer season.
