Carnival Bundle Packages Are Back Until Mid-May

When Carnival Cruise Line debuted its value packages in December 2025, it created quite the stir. Guests seemed to be really excited by the ability to bundle together several add-ons for a discounted price. Originally, the program was just a test, but Carnival brought it back for a limited time in February. Now it’s available to purchase again for a limited time and can be applied to all 2026 sailings.

Must Purchase By May 17, 2026

Carnival is not ready to make this a regular offer yet. Instead, they are offering these value bundles from April 17 to May 17, 2026. The offer is valid on all sailings departing through December 31, 2026. Packages must be purchased through My Cruise Manager.

Guests Receive Savings of 20% or More

There are still two plans available: the Essential Value Package for $50 per person per day, and the Ultimate Value Package for $90 per person per day. (Guests in Australia should visit Carnival.com.au to find prices in local currency).

These value packages are a good deal if you were already planning to purchase a drink package and internet. The savings from just the drink package and the internet plan amount to 20% for the Essential Value Package and 22% for the Ultimate Value Package. Your savings can increase even more if you take advantage of the shore excursion, specialty dining, spa treatment, or photo package discounts.
