Carnival Cruise Line is pushing back its entry into the China market by several months.
Carnival Miracle was due to begin sailing in spring 2017 and is now postponed until early 2018.
The 2,100 passenger Miracle will continue Hawaii and Mexican Riviera cruises through 2017.
"Following a recent review of our fleetwide deployment plans over the next few years and the best formula for balancing capacity needs, we have decided to enter the Chinese market in early 2018 and remain excited about expanding our operations to this part of the world," said Carnival spokesman Vance Gulliksen.
