Ships that have been restricted from entering US waters have been anchoring off Caribbean islands so they can have access to supplies. Bahamas is one of those ports that have welcomed the ships.

Maybe they are resupplying and getting ready for trial cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of the Carnival ships are planned to be the first doing test cruises from Florida... Carnival Horizon and Carnival Breeze. Both were in port in Miami this week for 2 days or so.

FTLCruiseGal Posted November 28, 2020 #10 Share Posted November 28, 2020 It also might be that it is easier and/or more convenient for crew to fly into the Bahamas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evandbob Posted November 29, 2020 #14 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Carnival does have the extra environmental training and policy implementation imposed by a US Court to complete in addition to any CDC COVID safety recommendations that all the lines must show compliance with. I won't be holding my breath for Carnival sailings in the beginning of 2021. Maybe by late spring or summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfaaa Posted November 29, 2020 #15 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I am betting on 3rd or 4th quarter of 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipof6Fools Posted November 29, 2020 #16 Share Posted November 29, 2020 My guess is late Spring. I cannot see 4th quarter, just to late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they don't need to join in international waters, just a country that allows crew changes. And, yes, the ship needs to provide the EDC (enhanced data collection) form for the crew for 28 days prior to getting a "green status", a pre--requisite to applying for a Conditional Sailing Certificate. Carnival Corp ships voluntarily did not supply the EDC while the ships were outside CDC jurisdiction, unlike other cruise lines, so they have to clear this hurdle as well as what other cruise lines need to do.

Raxter54 Posted November 30, 2020 #21 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Hmmm. Marine Traffic website shows the Horizon heading to Miami right now, after sailing around the Bahamas for a few days. Almost like their earlier visit to Miami was to pick up "passengers" (maybe corporate members) and then making a "practice" cruise. The Breeze was in Miami earlier, and is now docked at Freeport. Maybe another practice cruise? And the Freedom (ported in Galveston) is anchored south of Freeport, maybe getting ready to hit Miami for a start of a practice cruise? Speculation, of course.....but interesting.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTLCruiseGal Posted November 30, 2020 #23 Share Posted November 30, 2020 According to cruise mapper, it shows, celebrity silhouette, MSc seaside, and the horizon in port of Miami. The navigator is heading in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keeping my eye on them 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
