You may carry your own luggage on a Carnival cruise if you wish, but it makes much more sense to let the porters deliver it to your stateroom for you.

Once on board, you will be able to drop off your bags in your stateroom until your room is ready. Your luggage will be expedited to your stateroom so you can unpack and get settled in for a great vacation! You will have a dedicated phone number and line at Guest Services so you can quickly have your questions answered.
