Incidents (with Carnival Cruise Lines)
On August 16, 2006, Carnival's Celebration struck the harbor floor in Nassau, The Bahamas as the ship with over 1100 passengers onboard was preparing to dock. The ship's propeller was struck, causing vessel damage and the release of 53 gallons of lubricating oil into the sea. The Celebration canceled its Port Of Call to Nassau and returned to its Jacksonville, Florida homebase, giving passengers an extra day at sea. All passengers received a 20% discount towards their next cruise.
On August 25, 2007, Carnival's "Fun Ship" Celebration was on its normal embarkation schedule in Jacksonville, Florida, when Carnival's sniffer dogs detected something suspicious in the luggage. The terminal was closed at approximately noon, and reopened around 8 pm. It was later detected that heart medication set the dogs off, according to Jacksonville City Police.
