Review summary

I really loved Celebration. I was a little surprised that the sail away party seemed short and lacking. The rest of the lido parties were a blast! It was my first carnival cruise. Cruised other lines previously. Carnival didn’t disappoint. I would cruise on this ship again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

I used a passport and the line moved quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The food throughout the ship was good. Service was on the slow side mostly at the MDR and the Red Frog bar on the lido deck. I had YTD so when I checked in average wait time was 10-20 minutes.

Onboard Activities

I carried my luggage off myself. The line was extremely long but moved quickly. I was off the ship within 30 minutes.
