Cruising With John Heald

August 8, 2019

Did I hear somebody ask, “Who is John Heald?”  If you are a loyal cruiser with Carnival Cruise Line then I’m sure you know John!  But if you haven’t sailed with Carnival Cruise Line (and dare I say you are certainly missing out on a great deal of fun), let me fill you in a bit.


Today John Heald is the Brand Ambassador and senior cruise director of Carnival Cruise Line as well as a blogger for the cruise line.  However, he actually began his career with Carnival in 1989 in the Food and Beverage Department! It became pretty obvious early on that this is not where John’s talents lie and in 1990 he became a Carnival cruise director. By 2004 he was named the senior cruise director of Carnival.


In 2007, John started writing a blog about that quickly gained a loyal following and, since its debut, “John Heald’s Blog” has gotten more than 19 million views, making it one of the most popular travel-related blogs on the Internet. Suffice to say, he is insanely popular and loved by many!


This week Carnival Cruise Line announced that John will return to the high seas as cruise director on nine upcoming Carnival voyages! This will be a great opportunity for guests to meet and chat with him. During the voyages, John will also take part in the Love & Marriage show, Carnival’s live morning show and he will host a special event in the Casino.  Due to John Heald’s popularity, these voyages will likely sell out quickly.


Here is the full list of sailings:


September 7, 2019 – 7 day cruise on Carnival Breeze out of Port Canaveral

October 20, 2019 – 6 day cruise on Carnival Magic out of Fort Lauderdale

October 31, 2019 – 4 day cruise on Carnival Sensation out of Miami

November 17, 2019 – 6 day cruise on Carnival Magic out of Fort Lauderdale

February 1, 2020 – 7 day cruise on Carnival Conquest out of Miami

March 7, 2020 – 6 day cruise on Carnival Dream out of Galveston

April 11, 2020 – 7 day cruise on Carnival Panorama out of Long Beach

April 29, 2020 – 10 day cruise on Carnival Radiance out of Barcelona
