The news comes after weeks of rumors and then a confirmation from Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson after a meeting at the Carnival headquarters in Miami on September 3rd. The agreement approved by the council is for about 13 months, meaning the cruises will run from early November...

Carnival pulled out of Mobile in October 2011 after basing a vessel in the city for seven years, citing the inability to generate adequate financial returns.

Mayor Sandy Stimpson was very excited to make the announcement this morning that the Carnival Fantasy ship will once again be leaving from the Alabama Cruise Terminal under a 13-month contract. It also includes two additional one-year options to extend the agreement.
