What other cruise lines are similar to Carnival and have itineraries to Mexico?
we’ve sailed Carnival twice and taken the only good 2 cruise itineraries to Mexico they offer (4 day Catalina and Ensenada. 7 day puerto vallarta, mazatlan, cabo san lucas)
my parents will only sail to Mexico and all of Carnival’s other itineraries are to the same places we’ve already visited just in altered orders. we can’t take the 8 day from San Diego due to vacation planning
so what’s another great cruise line with cruises to Mexico?

If they will only sail to Mexico, have you considered the other side of Mexico? Cozumel, Cancun.
Royal is similar to Carnival in terms of price. Other than that everyone is going to be more expensive. Princess and Celebrity would provide different itineraries but I wouldn’t consider them like Carnival at all.
You did not mention the 7 day Carnival Spirit # Ports of call:Cabo San Lucas, MexicoMazatlan, MexicoLa Paz, Mexico.
But really LA and San Diego have limited itineraries and the oldest ships. If they would consider another port you’d have more choices but there just aren’t that many Baja Mexico cities, especially if you are ruling out anything longer. Royal offers several great 9, 10, and 11 night cruises that go to Acapulco and Ixtapa. They also offer a great Panama Canal that mostly stops in Mexico though does add Guatamala and Costa Rico on that though those are 13 and 15 nights.
Norwegian does the same ports too but at least it would be a different ship. Princess has LA to Santa Barbara to Ensenada. Celebrity only does 13-17 night ones out of there.
But if they can’t do anything other than Under 7 days or anything other than Mexico, you’ll be doing the same Itinerary over and over until you are old enough to book your own. At least when you book your own you’ll be smart enough to not get so set in your ways you miss out on EVERYTHING other than the same couple ports.

Well the first answer suggested, Cancun, Cozumel, etc. But, that wouldn’t be considered a Mexico Itinerary, if you were booking that would be a Western Caribbean Itinerary, which is also a good choice.
I would check out Norwegian Cruise Line, or Royal Caribbean International.
