Sensation in 2006

[cruiser1962]

I was looking into booking a 5 night on the Sensation in April 2006, and it says to "call us" under all of the prices. In fact, they won't give any prices for any sailings in 2006. A couple of weeks ago, they showed all of the prices. Does anyone have any info. on the Sensation? Is she going away? I haven't called Carnival yet?

two days ago, Carnival announced some deployment changes for 2006. "Sensation" will operate a series of four- and five-night cruises from Port Canaveral from March 23rd to October 19th, 2006 prior to returning to New Orleans in late October, 2006.

Thanks for the info. We have booked a 5 night on the Holiday in April, 2006 out of Mobile. I hope they don't consider changing the Holiday's itenerary?

"Holiday" is scheduled to return to Mobile after a March drydocking to resume her regular itineraries.

Awesome, thanks. We have sailed on her twice already, and believe it or not, she's one of our favorites if the not the most favorite!!

Does anyone happen to know what the new itenerary will be form Port Canaveral? I am sure it won't continue to go to the Western Caribbean?

cruiser1962,

four-night cruises will call at Nassau and either Freeport or Half Moon Cay. Five-night cruises will call at Grand Turk, Half Moon Cay and Nassau.

The "Elation" will take over these cruises in October, 2006 from the "Sensation". The "Elation" will not return to operating seven-night cruises from Galveston. Instead, "Carnival Conquest" will continue to operate from Galveston for the time being. No resumption of seven-night cruises from New Orleans has been announced, yet.
