Carnival Cruise Line will expand its fleet to five ships in Port Canaveral with the arrival in late 2024 of the Italian-themed Carnival Venezia.
The line announced the rebranded ship originally built for sister cruise line Costa Cruises as Costa Venezia will spend the winter Caribbean sailing season out of the Central Florida port starting Dec. 18, 2024.
The 135,225-gross-ton ship is currently undergoing a facelift in Spain that will include a unique black-and-yellow paint job as part of what Carnival is marketing as Fun Italian Style.
