CARNIVAL · FROM PORT CANAVERAL
Your out-of-office moment is calling.
MEET CARNIVAL GLORY
Carnival Glory is a classic Conquest Class ship that has sailed short Bahamas cruises from Port Canaveral since May 2024, and Carnival has confirmed it stays for the 2027–28 season.
It’s an easy, budget-friendly way to get away: 3-day weekend cruises to Celebration Key and 4-day cruises that usually add Nassau. Recent upgrades added the Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge, a redesigned Camp Ocean with a Kennedy Space Center video wall, a non-smoking casino and a new teen space.
Glory doesn’t have BOLT or Mardi Gras’ themed zones, but it has everything you need for a fun weekend: WaterWorks, comedy, live music, Guy’s burgers and a beach day.
WHERE SHE SAILS
Glory sails year-round from Port Canaveral, with bookable sailings currently through April 2028. Celebration Key is on every current itinerary; the port’s schedule shows most departures from Cruise Terminal 3, but always check your boarding pass.
Some 4-day sailings visit RelaxAway Half Moon Cay or Bimini instead of Nassau.
Sample routings for inspiration. Ports, order and sailing lengths vary by date. Confirm your exact itinerary with Victoria.
THINGS TO DO
Glory’s public rooms are color-themed rather than zoned, and the fun centers on the pool deck.
