The ship has been registered in the Bahamas since 2000 , after Panama was previously the home port. In 2007, like all units in the Carnival fleet , the Imagination was given the addition of Carnival to its name and thus became Carnival Imagination . In September 2016 the ship received an extensive modernization.

The Carnival Imagination is stationed in Long Beach and operates from there to ports in California and Mexico . In the course of the COVID-19 pandemic , the ship had to cancel all trips from March 2020. There had previously been reports of a passenger's illness.
