Carnival Legend and Carnival Miracle Swap Home Ports

Carnival Cruise LinesCarnival Cruise Lines will switch the homeport deployments of its 2,124-passenger SuperLiners Carnival Legend and Carnival Miracle beginning in spring 2007. Carnival Legend, which currently sails from New York and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., will be deployed to Tampa to operate year-round seven-day western Caribbean voyages departing Sundays from that port beginning April 15, 2007.

Currently based in Tampa, Carnival Miracle will be relocated to New York and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to operate eight-day Caribbean cruises from those ports beginning April 25, 2007.

“Carnival is always seeking ways to keep our product fresh for our guests. By deploying Carnival Legend to Tampa and Carnival Miracle to New York and Fort Lauderdale, we’re providing these markets with exciting new ‘Fun Ship’ vacation choices aboard two of the industry’s most sophisticated and technically advanced vessels,” said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO.

He added that switching the homeports for Carnival Miracle and Carnival Legend provides repeat guests sailing from Tampa, New York and Fort Lauderdale an opportunity to experience the unique interior designs and entertainment options available on these vessels.

Since Carnival Miracle and Carnival Legend are sister ships, guests’ reservations will be automatically shifted to the new vessel with booking and stateroom numbers remaining the same.

The Mail Buoy Episode 15

This week we decided to just do one show.� We didn’t have a whole lot of news, and our feature this week was insurance.� There just wasn’t enough information from either to make the two shows.

This week’s news:

After that we head off to discuss our Travel Insurance.� We know, not the most exciting of topics but important none the less.� We tried to keep it simple so we just talked about why you would want to insure your trip, what’s typically covered, and the differences between cruise line and private party insurance.

Finally there’s the Deal of the Week.� However, this week to get the details you’re going to have to listen to the show.� It’s a great deal, but it ties in with the discussion this week.

We’re looking to do a future show on your questions about cruising.� But we need those questions, so please post them in a comment here, e-mail us or call us at 888-286-9827.

As always, you’ll find the show in iTunes or you can click below to download it or play it right in your browser window.
