Review summary

So not sure what Carnival was thinking when they thought of this ship but it truly need’s tweaking There needs to be more specific activities for kids 6 - 12 Food stations like the burger and rib restaurants need to stay open much later than 5 and 6 More activities to get passengers to meet like maybe a meet and greet event The ship is huge looks great but not enough lounging cozy and quiet places to just sit and relax read a book,etc. Overall I was expecting so much more than what was there.

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

As per Carnival the food was not good at all. Buffets could be better choice of foods Specialty restaurants where good but extremely on the pricey side and sad you should have to spend such money to get a good meal

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

For as large as this new ship is I’d have expected a lot more than there was Lots of repeats and something’s should have been done in the beginning of cruise not the end If you want people to mingle plan in the start so there’s the whole cruise to make new friendships
