Carnival Cruise Line is launching an array of new itineraries for 2025-26, including lots of different options for visiting Bermuda. 

Bookings are now open for Carnival’s new 2025-26 itineraries, with cruises ranging from four to 12 days long. Travelers can sail to Bermuda aboard multiple ships, including Carnival Pride departing from Baltimore; Carnival Sunshine departing from Norfolk, Virginia; and Carnival Venezia departing from New York City.

“These added sailings are unlocking our richest Bermuda deployment, with more cruises set to call on the popular destination than ever before,” says Fred Stein, vice president of revenue planning and deployment for Carnival Cruise Line, in today’s announcement.

Several of Carnival Venezia’s sailings will be four-day, long-weekend getaways to Bermuda, which is a British overseas territory in the North Atlantic Ocean. The vessel, which joined the Carnival fleet earlier this year, is a repurposed vessel acquired from sister brand Costa Cruises. It’s the first in Carnival’s fleet to have an Italian theme.

Carnival Venezia will also offer Eastern Caribbean trips departing from New York before repositioning to its seasonal home at Port Canaveral.

“Carnival Venezia is a unique ship, and so is her deployment schedule,” says Stein.

The cruise line will also offer two transatlantic sailings in 2025-26. Offered aboard Carnival Glory and Carnival Spirit, the cruises will depart from Barcelona, stop in Bermuda and end in Florida.

Other highlights from the new itineraries include 12-day “Carnival Journeys” cruises, offered roundtrip from New York. Those cruises will visit destinations that Carnival does not often sail to, such as St. Kitts; Tortola, British Virgin Islands; Dominica; Barbados; and St. Lucia.
