Carnival Conquest debuted in 2002 as the first ship in Carnival's five-strong Conquest class, her interiors styled around French Impressionist art as a nod to New Orleans, her original homeport. She completed a 12-day dry dock at Grand Bahama Shipyard in February 2026, returning to Miami with a new Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge honoring military veterans and active-duty service members, a reimagined Club O2 for teens, a renovated WAREHOUSE video arcade, an expanded non-smoking casino, and refreshed retail. She now sails year-round from PortMiami on 3- and 4-night Bahamas and Caribbean itineraries, including calls at Carnival's private destination Celebration Key on Grand Bahama, plus Nassau, Princess Cays, or Half Moon Cay depending on the sailing.

✦ The standout feature

The Point Steakhouse, one of the fleet's most acclaimed specialty restaurants, paired with the new Heroes Tribute Bar & Lounge added during her February 2026 dry dock — a dedicated space honoring military service members and their families.
