Carnival Cruise Line is canceling and delaying more U.S. trips at a time when new cases of COVID-19 are averaging about 170,000 per day in the country amid a jumbled rollout of vaccines.

Carnival began warning travelers of cancellations on Friday.

Trips that were planned on three ships — the Magic, Paradise and Valor — are being delayed until November, the cruise line said.
