After a 30-day dry dock, Carnival Vista is returning to Port Canaveral, Fla., her homeport, boasting numerous enhancements. These include the iconic red, white, and blue hull livery, the introduction of a new Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge, revamped retail stores, an expanded casino, a teen club, and an arcade.
Externally, Carnival Vista proudly displays Carnival’s signature red, white, and blue livery on her hull. Internally, notable additions include the Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge, a space dedicated to honoring military veterans and active-duty service members, now a recurring feature across the Carnival fleet. The casino has undergone expansion with a fresh layout, alongside the addition of a separate non-smoking annex.
Shopping enthusiasts can explore the new Effy Jewelry store and Cherry on Top outlet. A relocated Club O2 now caters to teens, accompanied by a revamped arcade. The Lido Marketplace also receives a refreshed aesthetic.
With a capacity for 4,000 guests, Carnival Vista will resume year-round sailings from Port Canaveral, offering primarily six- and eight-day itineraries. These routes include sought-after destinations such as Half Moon Cay, Bahamas; Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos; Aruba; San Juan, Puerto Rico; St. Maarten; and St. Thomas. The vessel forms part of Carnival’s four-ship deployment in Central Florida, alongside Carnival Freedom, Carnival Liberty, and Mardi Gras.
