This was the worst cruise ever. The entertainment was terrible. The cruise director, Dave (some British idiot) was inept. Although, this was supposed to be a Christmas/New Year cruise, they forgot all about Christmas until my husband asked them. They then admitted that they had nothing planned and came up with a terrible show on the 25th!!! Santa Claus showed up on the night of December 25th!!!! New Years was another disaster - the cruise director was nowhere to be found and the passengers were left alone by the pool. Everything was done very poorly and was very badly organized. Do not bother with Carnival or the Jubilee. If you hear of a cruise director named "Dave", run for your life. Carnival as a whole does not have any class. Do not waste your money - go with Holland America at the very least.
On Oct. 1, 2001, my husband and I took our first cruise. We were very leary because of the WTC Attack on 9/11 and we are New Yorkers.The ship was beautiful and the crew couldn't be nicer. The only problem was some bad weather and not being able to get off at CocoCay, but were kept as busy as one would want when staying on the ship. We had such a great time that I went with two friends on another cruise on Nov. 12.The only problems we had that time was because of our travel agency, but the pursers, Omar and Raul, took care of everything. On both cruises, the food and service was spectacular. The entertainment was great and fellow passengers were delightful. In fact, we will be sailing on Royal Caribbean again this March - but this time on the Monrach. I loved the Majesty but wanted to try a different destination - if Majesty was sailing to another port I would be there in an instant, the crew was that great. I can't wait until we sail on the 28th. This time it will be with my husband and children. Great cruising to all
