Review summary

My husband and I booked this cruise to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.  We have sailed on Carnival before and were excited to cruise again.  Everything was just as we expected from previous trips.  Great food, entertainment and drinks.

Our balcony cabin was just enough room and our cabin steward Made was AWESOME!!

We had issues with our luggage from our flight but thanks to Marie at Delta and Robert in guest services on the ship our bags made it just in time.

Pros:
Food - Guy's Burger Joint and the burrito place were the best.
Embarkation and Debarkation - Best process ever!  We got Faster to the Fun and were able to skip all the lines and get right on and off the boat.  Definitely worth it.  During Debarkation, which is usually just a disaster, the crew kept every one in line and if it wasn't your time to get off the boat you were told to wait.  

Cons:
I wish I did a little more research on the time of year we went.  It was spring break for a lot of southern states so it was overly crowded.

We can't wait to book our next cruise!
