January 26, 2024 Carnival Conquest Two-Night Cruise to The Bahamas

Sandy

There’s an opportunity coming up to take a true weekend cruise to the Bahamas. Most “weekend” cruises from Miami are three-night getaways that depart on Friday afternoon and return early Monday morning. It would be great if you could fit an entire cruise into a weekend and avoid having to take time off work, but there aren’t many really short weekend cruises available. There is, however, a rare two-night cruise scheduled for January on the Carnival Conquest that will get you back to to port early Sunday morning.

Carnival Conquest’s two-night cruise to The Bahamas departs Miami at 3:30pm on Friday, January 26th, spends a day in Nassau, and returns to Miami at 8:00am on Sunday morning. See deals on this cruise and a few additional two-night cruises that are scheduled later in the year.

MSC offers several cruises from Miami to Europe.

Did you know you can take a cruise from Miami to Europe? Or from Europe to Miami? It’s true, you can!

The cruise line offering the most cruises from Miami to Europe in 2024 and 2025 is MSC, which makes sense, since MSC is based in Europe (Italy). MSC’s European destinations include Lisbon, Portugal; Barcelona, Spain, and Naples, Rome, and Palermo in Italy.

For a real adventure, Azamara Onward has a 156-night Mediterranean cruise departing Miami on January 6, 2026. The ultimate destination for the cruise if Barcelona, Spain but there are over 80 ports of call along the way!

No time for a long cruise? Never been on a cruise and not sure if it’s for you? Try a short three day cruise from Miami, Florida. Miami’s close proximity to Bahamas makes it possible for these short cruises to get you to a tropical destination (or two or three!) in just a few days. Most of the short cruises have Friday departures, which are great for making the most of your weekend.

Short cruises are a great way to fit a vacation into a busy schedule, and a great way for first time cruisers to see what cruising is like and to try out all the cruise ship fun and amenities.

Three days or three nights? The terminology used for cruise lengths can be confusing. What most people think of as a 3 day cruise is better described as a 3-night cruise. You’ll spend three nights aboard the ship and have two days at destinations. The amount of time you’ll spend on the ship on the first and last days of the cruise depend on the ship’s departure and arrival times. Cruises to the Bahamas usually depart Miami in the late afternoon and arrive back in Miami in the early morning.
