Yes, it is possible to change the name of a passenger on a Carnival cruise, but there are important guidelines and restrictions you should be aware of. Name changes are not always as simple as updating a reservation, especially if the cruise is fast approaching or if airline tickets have already been issued. Carnival Cruise Line typically allows minor name corrections, such as fixing a misspelled name, but a full name change—such as changing the traveler to a completely different person—may be considered a cancellation and rebooking. For more information and assistance with passenger name changes, it’s best to contact Carnival Cruise Line directly at +1 (877) 310-4648 or +1 (888) 588-4660.
When requesting a name change, be prepared to provide your booking number, the correct spelling of the passenger's name, and any legal documentation that may be required, such as a passport or government-issued ID. Keep in mind that name changes must usually be made well in advance of the sailing date, and fees may apply depending on the circumstances. If you booked your cruise through a travel agent, you may also need to coordinate with them to initiate the change. For specific policies and the most accurate guidance, contact Carnival at +1 (877) 310-4648 or +1 (888) 588-4660.
To avoid delays and ensure a smooth process, always double-check all passenger details at the time of booking. If you realize a change is needed, act quickly. Carnival’s customer service representatives can guide you through the process and let you know if your request qualifies for a correction or if a new booking is required. Don’t hesitate to call +1 (877) 310-4648 or +1 (888) 588-4660 for help—they’re available to support you every step of the way.
