Carnival cancels 12 additional Triumph sailings
As the Carnival Triumph continues to be towed to Mobile, Alabama, following an engine room fire on Feb. 10 that left the ship without propulsion, Carnival Cruise Lines has announced the cancellations of 12 additional voyages. The 12 cancelled cruises, which encompass sailings from Feb. 21 through April 13, are in addition to two previously cancelled voyages scheduled for Feb. 11 and Feb. 16. Affected guests will receive a full refund of their cruise fare, as well as non-refundable transportation costs, pre-paid shore excursions, gratuities, and government fees and taxes. Guests will also receive a 25% discount on a future three- to five-day Carnival cruise or a 15% discount on a six- to seven-day cruise. Travel agent commissions will be protected. Carnival Triumph operates four- and five-day cruises from Galveston, Texas.
