Carnival Cruise Line Adding 2025-2026 West Coast Sailings

Carnival Cruise Line is adding more sailings from the West Coast, including a new cruise to kick off Carnival Firenze’s debut in Long Beach, Calif. next spring.

As Carnival continues to unlock its 2025-26 deployment, many more sailings on Carnival Firenze and Carnival Radiance opened Nov. 8, with an array of itineraries featuring Mexican destinations. The cruise line is also adding to its Carnival Journeys program of longer sailings with new Hawaii cruises. To see all sailings currently available from Long Beach, click here.

The new sailings now available from Long Beach add more options for guests sailing from the West Coast, where Carnival currently offers itineraries ranging from short weekend getaways to 15-day cruises. The new itineraries feature popular destinations such as Ensenada and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and Catalina Island, Calif.

New sailings added to Carnival Firenze’s deployment schedule include a range of four-, five- and six-day sailings, with the six-day itineraries calling in Cabo San Lucas for two days. Carnival Radiance’s newly opened itineraries offer several three-, four- and five-day options.

In addition to new options now open for sale from the fall of 2025 and into the spring of 2026, Carnival has also opened an additional sailing for Carnival Firenze next spring, moving up the ship’s inaugural sailing to April 25, 2024. The ship’s first sailing from Long Beach will be a seven-day cruise visiting Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán, and Cabo San Lucas.

Six new Carnival Journeys sailings from Long Beach to Hawaii are now open on Carnival Radiance. The 14-day sailings will offer guests truly memorable cruise vacations visiting stunning destinations across the Hawaiian Islands, including Maui, Honolulu, Kauai and Hilo, along with a stop in Ensenada. In 2025, Carnival Radiance will cruise to Hawaii on Oct. 18 and Nov. 29. The 2026 departures are set for Jan. 10, Feb. 7, March 7 and April 4.
