Carnival Valor to Set Sail from Mobile, Alabama: Homeporting Updates for 2027
Carnival Cruise Line (CCL) has revealed a significant update in its 2027–2028 deployment plan, which includes establishing year-round operations in Mobile, Alabama. This change will allow the Carnival Valor to start 6- to 8-day cruises from Mobile to popular destinations, such as The Bahamas, Half Moon Cay, and Celebration Key, beginning May 15, 2027.
Before its move to Mobile, the Carnival Valor will conclude its previous itinerary with final sailings from New Orleans, including a 5-day cruise on May 1 and two 4-day trips to Mexico on May 6 and 10. This marks the inaugural homeporting of a Conquest-class ship in Mobile, enhancing regional cruise capacity.
Carnival Valor’s schedule will feature two 14-day “Carnival Journeys” sailings, one set for September 26, 2027, going to Caribbean and Panama ports, and another on January 16, 2028, to the Southern Caribbean. Additionally, a special 7-day Thanksgiving cruise is planned to leave on November 20, 2027, visiting Key West, Nassau, and Celebration Key.
In the interim, Carnival Spirit will provide seasonal service in Mobile from October 2026 through April 2027. Meanwhile, cruises from Florida will continue, with Carnival Glory offering short trips to The Bahamas from Port Canaveral, and additional itineraries from Miami.
