Carnival Dream Guests Should Prepare for Terminal Switch and Road Construction in Galveston
Guests boarding Carnival Dream at the Port of Galveston on Saturday, September 5, 2026, will embark from Cruise Terminal 28 instead of Cruise Terminal 25 due to a terminal switch. While the two terminals are adjacent, there is no vehicle access between them, and guests should be mindful of traffic patterns. Road construction along Harborside Drive will also impact access to the cruise terminal, potentially causing delays. Carnival has advised guests to stick to their pre-selected terminal arrival appointment and be aware that the ship will return to Cruise Terminal 25 on September 13. A complimentary shuttle will be available for guests parking at the port to transport them to the terminal.
💡 What This Means For You
Guests should plan their arrival at the Port of Galveston carefully to ensure they reach Cruise Terminal 28 on time.
📝 Mark's Take
With Carnival Dream departing for an 8-night cruise to the Bahamas on September 5, 2026, it's crucial for guests to be aware of the terminal switch and road construction that could delay their arrival.
