The agreement gives Carnival 100 percent use of the terminal, allowing for larger ships and providing additional space needed to accommodate two-way operations, enabling embarking guests to access the terminal prior to completion of disembarkation, MANA correspondent reported.

“For years we have been working toward reaching an agreement to expand the Long Beach Cruise Terminal to accommodate larger ships on the West Coast, and we’re thrilled to finally be able to move forward with our plans to assume full usage of the Dome, making Long Beach one of our largest homeport facilities,” Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line, said.

The cruise ship company said that the construction is slated to be completed in late 2017.
