Hi there!

Betcha can't wait for your cruise on Monday aboard the beautiful Carnival Inspiration, which is why we want to provide you with some important information regarding our departure plans for your sailing.

Due to the delayed arrival of one of our ships, the Carnival Splendor will now be docking in Long Beach on Monday instead of Sunday. As a result, the Carnival Inspiration will now dock and depart from the nearby port of San Pedro, CA. Don't worry, this location is less than 10 miles from Long Beach and all guests will receive complimentary transportation to the ship. The Carnival Inspiration will return to Long Beach at the end of your cruise.

For your comfort and convenience and since seating is limited in the cruise terminal, we ask that you please not arrive before 3:00 PM. Check-in for your cruise is now scheduled from 3:00PM to 6:00PM. We will set sail shortly thereafter and our itinerary plans remain the same.

If you are being dropped off at the pier by friends or family, feel free to proceed directly to San Pedro at the address below:

World Cruise Center Terminal
Ports America Cruise
Berth 93
100 Swinford Street
San Pedro, CA 90731

We're very sorry for this change in plans and thank you for your understanding.

Most importantly, we're looking forward to having you sail with us and can't wait for the FUN to begin!

See you soon!

Sincerely,

Vicky Rey, CTC
Vice President - Guest Services
