From USA Today...for your reading enjoyment: The fleets and home ports of Carnival Cruise Line, by the numbers

 

[AF-1]

Thanks for the article. I have never been on Carnival. They seem to be the biggest line around

Shocked to see Long Beach is Carnival's second busiest home port.

 

Wonder what criteria they used- number of ships, number of pax, days of embark?

Doesn't really surprise me. While looking at cruises out of LA in March 2018 I saw that Carnival had 5 cruises a week between Long Beach and Ensenada.

It was by the number of departures.

 

If they had used total number of passengers I wonder if the order might have changed.

No doubt that the order would have changes.

No, they had more passengers. Since they have mostly 3 and 4 day cruises, in one week a ship with a 3 and a 4 day cruise will have twice as many passengers than a ship with a 7 day cruise.

And since Carnival has 4 ships departing from Long Beach their passenger count is very high.

Interesting stats, I'd be interested in seeing them for all lines.

Interesting can't see Australia under destinations.

 

Wonder how much else they got wrong.

Carnival sells their Australia cruises on a different website.

There are only 3 ships leaving from Long Beach. The Imagination, Inspiration, and Miracle. When the Miracle leaves Long Beach, the Splendor will replace her.

I know that.

 

But they also sail from USA to Australia, so why no destination.

Are you referring to the cruise the Legend makes? Honolulu to Sydney and Sydney to Honolulu? That cruise is sold on the Australian site as well.

Will they ever get rid of those old Fantasy ships? They look so outdated and too many of them.

And parking will be horrible. Had to park on the roof when the Miracle is doing its MR cruises. Splendor is much larger than the Miracle. Parking was difficult when the Splendor was here the last time with only one Fantasy class ship in port.

Princess uses Long Beach on their CA Coastal cruises out of SF.
