Carnival Cruise Lines can pack a lot into a seven night
cruise. With their continued support of Canadian residents as the dollar
continues to slide, Carnival also packs a lot of value into that seven night
cruise. On March 30, 2014, Carnival Glory takes off for a seven night Western
Caribbean cruise. You can be on that ship from just $329 per person.
The Cruise
Carnival Glory embarks from Miami, Florida at 4pm on Sunday,
March 30, 2014. She returns to her home port on Sunday, April 6 at 8am. In
between, Glory makes four port calls in four different countries.
After a full day at sea, the first port of call is
Georgetown, Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands. Carnival Glory is docked from
7am to 4pm on Tuesday, April 1. The following day, the ship makes its way to
the Mexican island of Cozumel. She is docked at the island paradise from 10am
until 6pm.
Thursday, April 3 brings a bit more of a cultural
destination as Glory docks at Belize City in Belize. The ship is in port from
8am until 5pm. The following day, it’s simply fun and sun with a major lack of
culture. On Friday, April 4, Carnival Glory pulls into Mahogany Bay from 8am
until 3pm on the Honduras island of Roatan. Mahogany Bay is a newly developed private
beach owned by Carnival Cruise Lines with more activities than can possibly be
experienced in the short time the ship is in port.
The Price (prices are in U.S. dollars)
The special rate for Canadian residents starts at $329 per
person for an inside stateroom, based on double occupancy. This price is $50
off the already low Super Saver rate that non-Canadians must pay. Government
fees and taxes result in an additional $121.53 per person tacked on to the
price. What results is an inside cabin for two starting from $901.06, including
taxes.
The Ship
Carnival Glory is one of five Conquest Class ships in the
Carnival Cruise Lines fleet. She was built by Fincantieri in Italy and made her
maiden voyage in July, 2003. Glory is a large ship with a gross tonnage of
110,239. She is 290 metres or 952 feet in length with 13 decks accessible to
the capacity 2,974 passengers. Typically, there are 1,150 crew members onboard.
The Conquest Class of ships all entered service for Carnival
between 2002 and 2007. Conquest came first in 2002 with Carnival Valor,
Carnival Liberty and Carnival Freedom coming after Glory.
