| Carnival Valor is a post-Panamax Conquest-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Lines. She is the largest Carnival cruise ship based out of the Port of Miami, Florida and has a "Heroes and Heroics" theme. Duty-free shopping, a spa, a casino, and numerous entertainment options are some of her features. She offers seven-day sailings through the Eastern, Southern, and Western Caribbean.
Carnival Valor's home port is Miami, Florida and has been since its inaugural sailing in 2004.
