Severe Nor'easter Postpones Carnival Cruise Departure from Virginia

Buzzline

This week's nor'easter has resulted in the Carnival Sunshine being delayed in its return to Norfolk, Virginia, causing the upcoming Bahamas voyage to forfeit an entire night at sea and completely omit its planned stop in Bimini. This incident marks the latest consequence of a tumultuous week for Carnival, which also had to rearrange its Hawaii port schedule for the Carnival Spirit due to a different significant hurricane. Additionally, Carnival has opened bookings for the Carnival Tropicale, set to sail from Galveston, Texas starting April 15, 2028, featuring 4-, 5-, 6-, and 8-night trips to Mexico, the Bahamas, and the Western Caribbean for forward-thinking travelers.
