BREAKING AND SAD NEWS FOR AUSTRALIA'S CRUISE INDUSTRY

Carnival Cruise Line will now fully withdraw Carnival Luminosa and Carnival Adventure from Australia in March 2028 as part of its long-term global fleet planning.

Carnival Luminosa, which has sailed seasonally from Brisbane since the industry restarted in 2022, will make her final voyage from Sydney on 15 March 2028. Carnival Adventure will depart Sydney on 20 March 2028 and will not return to Australia as originally planned.

In an earlier deployment change in February, Carnival said Carnival Adventure would relocate to North America for the northern summer from April 2028 while continuing to sail seasonally in Australia.
Carnival Luminosa and Carnival Adventure were both supposed to split their time between Australia and North America, with Carnival Splendor and Carnival Encounter staying year-round.

The company then cited more favourable market conditions elsewhere and the uncertain regulatory environment in Australia and New Zealand. Carnival Splendor and Carnival Encounter will continue to sail year-round from Sydney and Brisbane respectively.
The cruise line said the decision reflected factors considered when ships are deployed several years in advance, including long-term certainty and globally competitive operating conditions to support itinerary planning and investment.
The announcement follows the federal government’s recent extension of the cruise industry’s ability to sail between Australian ports until the end of 2028, while it continues to develop a long-term licensing regime for cruising.

Carnival Cruise Line country manager Peter Little described the extension as “a welcome but interim step while the long-term operating framework for the Australian cruise sector is developed over the next two years”.
“As the only cruise line with ships dedicated year-round to Australia, Carnival has greater exposure to changes in local market and operating conditions than cruise lines with a seasonal or more limited presence,” he said.

“We will continue to work constructively with the federal government as it develops the future arrangements for cruise ships operating in the Australian market.”
Little encouraged guests to book over the next 18 months, with Carnival offering a range of value-focused sailings across the next two summers. He said both departing ships had played an important role in the line’s Australian story, taking guests to South Pacific destinations including Vanuatu, New Caledonia and Papua New Guinea.

Carnival will release its 2028/29 program in the coming weeks, with Little saying it would bring “more opportunity for great value cruise holidays” on Carnival Splendor and Carnival Encounter.
