Carnival Cruise Line’s highest responsibilities include the health and safety of our guests and crew. Coronavirus is a fluid situation and we continue to work closely with public health officials, including the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), as well as the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), to monitor, screen and implement best practices to protect the health of our guests and crew as it relates to COVID-19 (coronavirus). Our monitoring, screening and operational protocols are designed to be flexible so that we can effectively adapt to changes as they occur.

Our team is monitoring COVID-19 developments from our state-of-the-art Fleet Operations Center in Miami so that we can quickly respond to any situation and communicate promptly. Our guests remain tremendously supportive and understanding. In turn, our entire crew is committed to providing you a great vacation.

Here’s what we are doing to ensure your safe vacation:

  1. Enhanced Screening Procedures

    There are also certain guests that will be subject to additional screening. Please be advised that guests and crew who have visited or traveled through the countries below will receive medical screening and will be required to provide travel documentation and are subject to passport verification:

    • Guests traveling from/through Thailand, Vietnam and Taiwan in the last 20 days.

    In addition to our usual procedures, we have implemented the following expanded protocols:

    • All guests must comply with standard pre-boarding health reporting at time of check-in.
    • Additional pre-cruise and in-terminal screenings and questionnaires will be administered, including pre-boarding medical evaluations, as needed.
    • We are taking the temperatures of all guests and crew during embarkation.
    • Medical staff in the terminals to conduct secondary screenings for those with a temperature over 37.8⁰C and as necessary based on travel history.
    • Crew members are also subject to additional screening measures prior to boarding.
