Carnival dry-dock schedule lists maintenance periods through 2029
The reported schedule covers ships entering dry dock from 2026 through 2029, although dates remain subject to change.
A reported Carnival schedule lists dry-dock periods for multiple ships between 2026 and 2029. According to the report, cruise ships must undergo dry-docking at least twice every five years to meet international safety and classification requirements. Ships cannot remain in service while in dry dock.
In 2026, Carnival Freedom is scheduled for September 1 to October 8, Carnival Radiance for September 12 to October 2, and Carnival Luminosa for October 23 to November 12. The 2027 schedule lists Carnival Glory, Carnival Sunrise, Carnival Adventure, Carnival Paradise, Carnival Breeze, Carnival Celebration, Carnival Horizon and Carnival Sunshine.
The ships listed for 2028 are Carnival Conquest, Carnival Elation, Carnival Spirit, Carnival Venezia, Carnival Splendor and Carnival Jubilee. Carnival Vista is listed for January 7 to January 30, 2029, while Carnival Firenze is scheduled from February 1 to March 1, 2029. The report cautions that Carnival may revise dry-dock dates because of operational needs or maintenance issues.
According to the report, most Carnival ships use Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport, Bahamas. Ships deployed in other regions may use international shipyards, including facilities in Singapore and Marseille, France, when a journey to the Bahamas is not feasible.
