Carnival Cruise Line to pull it’s ships out of the UK and Europe for 2014

Carnival have not long ago brought the Legend over to sail from the UK and the Sunshine to sail from Barcelona, but it seems this isn’t working out as well as they hoped.

Carnival say that this is because they were relying on a lot of North American passengers to fly over to keep the numbers up on these cruises, but this wasn’t happening as much as they would have hoped due to the increase in flight costs.

There is already such a large amount of competition in cruises going from the UK and Barcelona I am not personally surprised that this has happened.  The situation is obviously good for passengers though as it is competition that helps drive prices down.

Carnival have announced that the Carnival Legend will be sailing from Sydney in 2014.
