Crystal Paradise adds extra Havana stops
Carnival Cruise Line has added five more sailings with extended calls in Havana in 2018 after strong demand for the destination.
The new Crystal Paradise voyages include three five-day cruises to Havana and Cozumel or Key West departing February 17, July 2 and September 5, and a six-day sailing featuring Havana and Grand Cayman departing August 26.
All of these include a day-long call and overnight in Havana.
The cruise line is also adding an eight-day voyage with stops at Havana, Grand Cayman and Cozumel departing August 18, which includes two full days in the historic Cuban capital.
"Our cruises to Cuba have been very well received and we’re delighted to provide our guests with additional opportunities to experience and explore this fascinating and sought-after destination," said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line.
Earlier this year, Carnival announced a series of four- and five-day voyages to Havana that kicked off in late June.
