CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES' 2004 NEW YORK PROGRAM:
BIGGER AND BETTER THAN EVER

Unprecedented Number of Departures from Big Apple Include Voyages to
Caribbean, Canada, New England, Bahamas, Florida and Bermuda

MIAMI 11/12/03
Carnival Cruise Lines will operate a record 57
"Fun Ship" departures from New York next year - a 250 percent increase
over
just five years ago.
The line's 2004 schedule from New York includes a new seven-day
round-trip
Port Canaveral/Orlando and The Bahamas cruise program on the new
2,124-passenger Carnival Miracle; four- and five-day Canada and
seven-day
"fall foliage" voyages on the 2,758-passenger Carnival Victory; and
eight-day Caribbean sailings on the 2,124-passenger Carnival Legend.
Carnival Legend will also operate a special one-time Bermuda/New
England
cruise.
"'Fun Ship' cruising from New York has grown dramatically in recent
years as
consumers increasingly seek departures from this popular and
convenient
homeport," said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO. "In
addition to
exciting cruises to the Caribbean, Canada, New England, Bahamas,
Florida and
Bermuda, our 2004 New York cruises will be offered on some of the
cruise
industry's newest, most amenity-laden ships featuring an unprecedented
array
of dining and entertainment options and the most stunning interiors
afloat,"
he added.


New Seven-Day Round-Trip Cruises on Carnival Miracle
On June 12, 2004, Carnival Miracle will operate the first of
12
week-long cruises to Port Canaveral/Orlando and The Bahamas from New
York.
The seven-day voyages will include an extra-long, 14-hour call at Port
Canaveral, Fla., offering guests ample time to visit the nearby
Kennedy
Space Center or enjoy an excursion to Orlando's popular theme parks
and
attractions. Also included are visits to Nassau and Freeport, both of
which
are home to gorgeous white-sand beaches and excellent shopping and
watersports opportunities.


Eight-Day Caribbean Cruises on Carnival Legend
Carnival will continue its popular eight-day round-trip
Caribbean
cruise program from New York aboard Carnival Legend April 29 - Oct.
14,
2004. On this one-of-a-kind program, the 88,500-ton SuperLiner will
sail
from New York to San Juan, St. Thomas/St. John, and Tortola/Virgin
Gorda,
stunning tropical islands offering magnificent beaches, outstanding
restaurants and a diversity of shops and boutiques. The unique
eight-day
Caribbean itinerary from New York features ports typically available
on
Florida-based cruises, providing a convenient, cost-effective
alternative to
departures from that region.


Four- and Five-Day Canada Cruises on Carnival Victory
Carnival Victory will operate a summer schedule of four- and
five-day Canada cruises from New York June 24 - Sept. 6, 2004.
Four-day
cruises, which sail Thursday through Monday and call at Halifax, Nova
Scotia, provide an ideal weekend getaway. Five-day cruises, which
depart on
Mondays and Saturdays, visit Halifax and Saint John, New Brunswick.
Halifax
and Saint John are charming and historic Canadian cities with quaint
shops
and cafes, distinctive architecture and a rich and diverse cultural
heritage.


Seven-Day 'Fall Foliage' Cruises Aboard Carnival Victory
Seven-day "fall foliage' cruises on the Carnival Victory will depart
New
York on four successive Saturdays Sept. 11 - Oct. 2, 2004, and visit
Boston;
Portland, Maine; and Sydney and Halifax, Nova Scotia. Unlike most fall
foliage cruises from New York, which operate north or southbound
starting
and ending in two different locations, Carnival Victory sails
round-trip,
offering added convenience for guests. In addition to providing guests
an
opportunity to view the colorful hues of the changing autumn leaves,
the
week-long Carnival Victory cruises visit four distinctly different
cities
along the Atlantic seaboard, each with a history and character all its
own.


Special Bermuda/New England Cruise on Carnival Legend
Carnival Legend will operate a special six-day Bermuda cruise April
23-29,
2004. During their two days in Bermuda, guests can visit
centuries-old
sites, partake in a variety of watersports and relax on the island's
legendary pink-sand beaches. The cruise will also include a stop at
Newport, R.I., a charming New England town featuring quaint
restaurants and
shops, as well as Colonial-style mansions and other historical sites.


Signature 'Fun Ship' Amenities
Among the newest vessels in the "Fun Ship" fleet, Carnival
Miracle,
Carnival Victory and Carnival Legend offer a variety of signature "Fun
Ship"
amenities, including myriad fine and casual dining options, spacious
accommodations, lavish entertainment, expansive spa and children's
facilities, four swimming pools and a cascading water slide. Carnival
Miracle and Carnival Legend also feature steakhouse-style supper clubs
featuring U.S.D.A. prime aged beef and other gourmet cuisine.
An on-board duty free shopping mall, full casino gambling, and
a
comprehensive golf program offering professional instruction both
aboard
ship and during golf excursions are also available.


Carnival is currently accepting reservations on all of its
2004 New
York "Fun Ship" departures. For additional information and
reservations, contact any travel agent.
