Carnival Cruise Lines announced that the Carnival Legend will sail 17 European cruises between April 22 and Oct. 31. Departure ports include Dover (London), Venice, and Barcelona. She will spend the summer sailing Mediterranean, Baltic, Norwegian Fjords, and British Isles.
This summer, Carnival will be represented in Europe by the brand new Carnival Breeze. This is how Carnival has typically operated. Since Carnival launched the Splendor in 2008, they usually sail their newest ships in Europe right after launch. After all, they are built right in Italy.
It should be noted that Carnival also stated that they will not replace the Legend in Tampa while she’s away in Europe.
