As of 2011, prices for Carnival Christmas cruises vary between $200 and $1,000 per person, depending on the accommodations and cruise length. For example, an interior room costs considerably less than a suite regardless of the cruise length. Usually, the cruise does not leave on Christmas; instead, it departs a few days before the holiday.
Carnival Christmas cruises set sail to multiple destinations across the United States. Some of Carnival's destinations include Mexico, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. Your departure port depends on your destination.
Carnival Christmas cruises include a Christmas dinner on board for those who choose to participate, spas, health centers, swimming pools, on-board casinos, and activities for families and children. For the holidays, on-board musicians play Christmas music in the dance hall for those that want to dance.
