CCL President Christine Duffy noted the convenience of sailing from these home ports. “As America’s cruise line, we continue to sail from more U.S. homeports than any other line and our 2026/27 offerings from Tampa and Mobile are great examples of that commitment to provide our guests with the convenience of sailing from homeports that are a short drive away,” she announced. “With a variety of itineraries, many of which feature our own unique destinations Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay, our guests will have plenty of great vacation options, and our travel advisor partners will have some unique experiences to offer their clients,” Duffy concluded. |
In addition to these sailings, the cruise operator recently unveiled more upcoming voyages from Miami, Port Canaveral, Galveston, and Baltimore.
