Carnival Cruises Out of Norfolk, VA

[Kendall James-Vargas]

Carnival Cruise Line has announced its expansion of sailings from Norfolk, Virginia. I have never cruised out of Norfolk before. Has anyone cruised with Carnival from this area in the past? There must be an increased demand in that region. Since I no longer live near a Florida port, I may consider cruising from Norfolk instead.

@Kendall James-Vargas I also haven't cruised from Norfolk before. I think popularity of cruising from all of the U.S. in general is expanding. It is such a cost efficient and practical way to vacation. It's the only real vacation to me!

Just glad that they are expanding the departing from lesser know ports.  It is cost-efficient and good overall for the local business.

@3Sisters Agreed, cruising is the best way to vacation!

@DeanneB Local business in that area will definitely benefit from the increase of travelers to the area. I wonder if port fees for that area are lower because it's not as popular as some of the other larger U.S. ports.
