“It is an honor to bring our new flagship to Grand Turk as its first Caribbean port of call and welcome our guests to experience the beauty of the island,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. “Grand Turk is a popular destination with our guests and I’m looking forward to Carnival Celebration making many memorable visits going forward.”
After today’s stop, Celebration will continue its journey with a visit to Amber Cove, Dominican Republic on Thanksgiving Day and then stop in Nassau, Bahamas on Friday. Saturday will be a sea day before the vessel returns to PortMiami on Sunday.
