Carnival Spirit
With a guest capacity of over 2,000 travelers, Carnival Spirit will transport any Avoya Travel guest to a land down under – Australia!

Whether you want an action-packed vacation or a relaxing getaway, find it all on Carnival Spirit – splash around in the largest waterpark at sea in Australia, play a couple rounds of mini-golf, or relax in the day spa. When you need a break, retreat and recharge in the spacious and well-appointed cabins and plan your next activity. The four dining options are as superb as the ship, offering restaurant venues such as a top-notch steakhouse and an outdoor BBQ. Complete with 16 bars and lounges, live entertainment and shows, and a dazzling casino, there is a limitless way to plan your vacation at sea onboard Carnival Spirit!
Onboard Experience
Dress Code
The first thing to remember is that you're on vacation and you are onboard Carnival Cruises’ ‘Fun Ships’ to have a good time. Secondly, remember to travel light. Keeping these two pieces of advice in mind are very important for packing.
Casual attire and resort wear is typically appropriate attire onboard and in-port. Shorts, slacks, sundresses, blouses, sandals, etc., are appropriate for women, and clothing for men is just as casual. Travelers might also want to consider bringing along a sweater or jacket for cool evenings and inexpensive rain gear in case of a sudden shower. While restaurants typically have casual dress code, there are also instances where you may visit a specialty restaurant or attend a special Captain’s Cocktail Party and Gala Farewell Dinner that requires business casual or formal attire. For days in port where you will be participating in various shore excursions, you should dress accordingly to the dress codes of the sites you are visiting, as well as bring a pair of sneakers for strenuous walking.
Formal Wear: Men: suit and tie, sport coat, tie and slacks; Women: evening dresses, cocktail dresses; pantsuits.
Casual Resort Wear: Men: sport shorts, slacks; Women: dresses, skirts, shorts, Capri pants.
*Please Note: Shorts, t-shirts, tank tops, and bathing attire are not permitted in the Dining Room during dinner.
