The vessel will offer a range of activities and experiences from other Carnival ships as well as some new spaces, including Playlist Productions, The Punchliner Comedy Club, Limelight Lounge, Piano Bar 88, Alchemy Bar and RedFrog Rum Bar.
"We couldn’t be prouder to welcome Carnival Luminosa to our fleet and to start our highly anticipated sailings from Brisbane followed by unique bucket-list itineraries in Alaska," said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line.
"To truly make Luminosa feel part of the Carnival Cruise Line family, we are adding our beautiful new livery to her hull, of course, and are keeping her throwback funnel design that once adorned some of our most iconic earlier vessels."
Luminosa will sail a variety of seasonal itineraries from Brisbane from 6 November 2022 to 13 April 13 2023, including three- and four-day cruises to Australian ports and six- and seven-day Great Barrier Reef and South Pacific sailings.
From Seattle, Luminosa will sail a four-month Alaska schedule with 17 seven-day sailings as well as six- and eight-day sailings to Juneau, Ketchikan, Sitka, Skagway, Icy Strait Point, and Tracy Arm Fjord.
Completing its season in Alaska, Luminosa will operate another transpacific voyage back to Brisbane, stopping in first-time-for-Carnival destinations including Kushiro, Aomori, Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, as well as Puerto Princesa, Philippines and Bitung, Indonesia.
