CDC gives Carnival OK for test trips from Port Canaveral, Miami, Galveston

ORLANDO, Fla. — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention opened the door for cruises to begin again for Carnival Cruise Line out of Port Canaveral, Miami and Galveston.

The cruise line announced the decision Friday that will allow it to sail ships from the three ports on test sailings with volunteer passengers to prove out COVID-19 safety protocols.

“These agreements move us one step closer to sailing with our loyal guests,” said Lars Ljoen, executive vice president and chief maritime officer for Carnival Cruise Line in a press release. “We appreciate the support from not just these three homeport partners, but all of our homeports, that are eager to have us back as soon as possible.”
