Carnival Glory
“Port Canaveral's short-cruise favorite — back in service after an April–May 2026 dry dock refresh.”
Carnival Glory entered service in 2003 as the second ship in the Conquest class, christened by physicist and astronaut Sally Ride. She moved to a Port Canaveral, Florida homeport in May 2024 and completed a further dry dock refurbishment from April 25 to May 11, 2026, adding a new non-smoking casino and a reimagined Club O2 for teens. From Port Canaveral she runs short getaways to the Bahamas, including calls at Celebration Key and Nassau — an easy, drive-to option for Central Florida and Orlando-area cruisers.
The Emerald Room Steakhouse's floor-to-ceiling, ocean-view windows, paired with a 214-foot waterslide and one of the fleet's most photographed 'whale-tail' funnels.
