Carnival is an excellent cruise line. The size of ships seems to be getting out of control. Way too many people to try to handle/coordinate in a professional manner. Hardly seen ships officers in charge of an area around. Especially the dining areas.
The Military Appreciation Night was by far, the BEST of any of the cruise lines we have been on. Bar None. I Salute your company and staff for a job well done.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Only issue with this cruise was not having the Platinum and Diamond members singled out for faster boarding. All passengers were treated the same.

Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Our room Steward, FAUZI was excellent. Room always clean and tidy. Waiters at the bars were extremely professional and fast. It was amazing to order a refreshment and they know what your name and what you are/were drinking.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
A little difficult remembering or finding areas with a ship this size. Especially when getting older.
The only issue we can see is the lack of enough toilets on the ship for the amount of people. Especially after going to plays, Comedy Club, Dining etc.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Had issue with cabin door opening/closing. Had to push or pull hard to get into our cabin. FAUZI (Stateroom Attendant) had maintenance fix the issue. Room was always clean. Excellent employee.
Ship tip
Do what staff tells you when Embarking/Debarking the ship. Relax.... you will have a more Harmonious outcome.
Outstanding. It has been a few years since we last visited Curacao. A lot of growth and construction for the better. Again, would take a taxi instead of excursion to see the island.
Curacao should have at least one Public Toilet facility for cruise ships. One has to pay $4 to use the toilet at a business. Prices have also increased at least 30%-40% from our last visit.
People leaving with their luggage seemed to forget how to understand English. Trying to get off before Customs could to their jobs. Created a CF on stairways and elevators. They were also using the area for Diamond and Platinum members debarking the ship.
