If you look at the cover of your ticket booklet, you will see an "Important Notice to Guests." This notice directs your attention to the terms and conditions of your contract. It is important to read this and become aware of the specific conditions and limitations of your passage. This includes time limitations and proper venue in which to file suit. Carnival reserves the right to cancel or substitute any scheduled port of call at any time and for any reason whatsoever without prior notice, and shall not be liable for any guests by reason of such a cancellation or substitution.

Change in Itinerary

When Possible, Carnival will promptly notify guests of a pre-cruise itinerary change through their travel agents, or the guest in the case of direct bookings. Carnival will offer such guests an opportunity to cancel their cruise without penalty within 24 hours. No additional compensation for the itinerary change will be offered at that or any other time. If an itinerary change occurs while at sea or when notice prior to sailing is not feasible, Carnival shall attempt to substitute an alternative port. No compensation shall be provided to guests when an alternative port is offered. If an alternative port is not provided, guests shall be provided a shipboard credit of $25.00 per person. The Vacation Guarantee shall not be affected by this policy.

The foregoing is a summary of the itinerary change policy and is qualified in its entirety by the complete policy that is posted on Carnival's web site. Click here to view.
