MIAMI, Feb. 20, 2023 – As Carnival Cruise Line prepares to unveil details about Carnival Firenze's introduction to its fleet, guests can now register to be the “first to know” about upcoming itineraries and special sale promotions by clicking here.

Carnival Firenze joins the fleet in spring 2024 and will sail from Long Beach, Calif. The ship will offer a variety of cruises year-round, with sailings set for popular destinations in Baja, California and the Mexican Riviera. Detailed itineraries and onboard offerings will be announced shortly.

"We embark more guests from California than any other cruise line, and soon Carnival Firenze will provide a great new option for them," said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. "When the ship joins our fleet, she's going to bring our valued guests a new experience that complements our signature fun with the ship's spectacular Italian atmosphere."

The ship will feature the cruise line's new Carnival Fun Italian Style experience, which debuts with the June 2023 arrival of Carnival Venezia in New York. Carnival Fun Italian Style incorporates Carnival’s signature high-energy environment, friendly team members and many familiar venues, plus several new, creative concepts – from Italian-themed restaurants, bars and entertainment.
