Program Features Day-Long Visits to Cozumel, Belize, Costa Maya and Nassau Carnival Cruise Lines’ 110,000-ton Carnival Glory recently began a new four-port, seven-day itinerary, part of the ship’s alternating week-long eastern and western Caribbean cruise schedule from Port Canaveral, Fla. Carnival Glory’s new western Caribbean cruises feature extended day-long visits to four tropical destinations – Cozumel, Belize, Costa Maya and Nassau. "Glory’s new seven-day Caribbean itinerary combines two of cruising’s most popular destinations – Cozumel and Nassau – with two of the newest – Belize and Costa Maya. Ports included on this one-of-a-kind program not only feature excellent shopping, dining and watersports but archeological ruins and eco-tourism opportunities, not to mention some of the world’s best beaches," said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO. Ports on the Carnival Glory’s new itinerary include Nassau, which, in addition to friendly Bahamian hospitality, offers beautiful white-sand beaches and outstanding duty-free bargains. An island located near Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula, Cozumel offers magnificent beaches and crystal-clear waters popular with fishing and diving enthusiasts the world over. Belize is an unspoiled Central American paradise offering a diversity of eco-tourism opportunities -- from barrier reef scuba diving and snorkeling with sharks and stingrays to Mayan ruins excursions and an unforgettable cave tubing expedition/rain forest tour. The unique Mexican destination of Costa Maya was created specially for cruise guests and is home to gorgeous beaches, myriad watersports, excellent shopping, and a variety of exciting shore excursions. Carnival Glory’s new four-port, seven-day western Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral began May 20, 2006, and alternate each week with the ship's seven-day eastern Caribbean cruises to Nassau, St. Thomas/St. John and St. Maarten. Carnival Glory entered service in 2002 and features 22 lounges and bars, four swimming pools, a 214-foot-long water slide, a 14,500-square-foot health club, an Internet café, jogging track and an on-board duty-free shopping mall. A comprehensive golf program offering instruction both aboard ship and during golf excursions is also featured. In addition to a 1,400-seat poolside eatery with a 24-hour pizzeria, the ship includes twin two-level formal restaurants and a reservations-only supper club offering U.S.D.A. dry-aged beef and other gourmet cuisine. All dining venues feature "Georges Blanc Signature Selections" created by the world-renowned French master chef who has maintained the coveted three stars from the Michelin guide for the past 25 years. Sixty percent of Carnival Glory’s 1,487 spacious staterooms offer either an ocean view or private balcony. All staterooms feature the new "Carnival Comfort Bed" sleep system with plush mattresses, luxurious duvets and high quality pillows and linens. Carnival Glory also offers "Camp Carnival" and "Club 02" with expansive facilities and fun-filled activities for children and teens, respectively.
