In a press release issued today, Carnival Cruise Line announced the opening of a new transpacific Carnival Journeys cruise for 2025 on Carnival Luminosa . When the ship repositions from its Alaska season and returns to Australia, it will sail a 22-day voyage that visits breathtaking destinations, including Hawaii and several South Pacific islands.
The new sailing’s itinerary begins with a departure from Seattle, Washington on Sept. 18, 2025, with Carnival Luminosa arriving in Sydney, Australia on Oct. 11, 2025. Destinations during the cruise include Honolulu, Hawaii; Papeete (Tahiti) and Moorea, French Polynesia along with Noumea, New Caledonia.
This is the latest addition to the expanding Carnival Journeys program, special sailings that feature unique travel experiences and destinations. Carnival continues to tap into interest from guests in longer sailings by adding unique voyages around ship repositionings and dry dock schedules. The Carnival Journeys program currently offers five other transpacific sailings open for sale, with four set to sail this year and another in 2025. Additionally, nine transatlantic Carnival Journeys cruises are open for sale – with three scheduled this year and six for 2025. A sample of currently available ocean-crossing cruises is as follows:
