Carnival Extends Cruise Travel Suspension From US Ports

ORLANDO, Fla. — Carnival Cruise Line is cancelling all cruises for North America through September 30.

The company announced Monday it had advised guests and travel agents of the decision.

The announcement follows a decision Friday by the Cruise Lines International Association to suspend all cruises sailing from U.S. ports through September 15.

Carnival Cruise Line began a voluntary 30-day pause in operations on March 13, which has been extended three times.

Guests will have the option of a full refund, or to book for a later date with an onboard credit, or a future cruise credit.

On Friday, Disney announced it was suspending cruises for the Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream through September 15. Cruises for the Disney Wonder and Disney Magic have already been suspended.
