I love carnival perfect they are not. but neither are any of the other cruise lines. they all have something that does not sit right with somebody. you are on vacation make it the best possible you are and I'm not referring to anyone in particular just in general. I'm going again february. three in less than one year. I love cruising

I've had a good time on my carnival cruises but the last one was not as good. There were some things that needed to be fixed and the food quality was much lower but it was still a good value. I don't believe you are a fireman that sounds really fake. Why do you get so defensive when someone says anything slightly negative about carnival.

Well I look at it as your on a cruise not matter what cruise line for that guy who thinks I work for carnival but there really ain't to much to be upset about honestly you know. I think about the people who can't go on cruises and the ones who just don't have to money to do something like that so that's why I make comments for people who have negative comments because there shouldn't be anything negative

I just have been reading a lot of what people have written on different days and some people get really upset when people post negative things about Carnival. I can see why some people think it is the employees writing responses.

I have no idea who that person was but whatever and I just wanted you to know because of being a first time cruiser that these things happen and I'm not going to say that they won't again but with my experience I haven't had much of a problem you know one every now and then but nothing that is so big that I would not cruise with carnival again

I just think is is bad when people get attacked with their opinions. Not every cruise is the same. Everyone should be able to post without people being nasty. When I posted I put what I thought was positive and also negative.

I'm diffently not an employee I just love carnival. that's pretty funny and coragous to make such an accusation. heck I wish I could be captain. You want to know what I do I'm a firefighter that's all I am. now let me post this and wait for another comment regarding the fact that I work for carnival

too many carnival employees attacking people's post if they say anything slightly negative. carnival employees are posing as cruisers.

yes please do trust me another ship will help also you cruised on conquest correct if so try another ship in a different class and what I mean is like there are different classes for different size ships like carnival conqest is in the conqest class along with glory and triumph and I think 2 others not sure but try like a dream class which is a larger ship or you could go with a smaller ship as well but just an option

Thanks , nice to know . I will cruise again but might try another ship.

Well I'm not familiar with a NASCAR show but I will agree with you on this that the shows do need a change but one show to me that helps all the others is the 80s show and depending on what ship or what cruise your on the shows can be very different from other ships. If you plan to go on another cruise make sure you go to the comedy (and a late one). the reason I say that is because it's a great way to end a night or a night time show outside depending on the movie. But please don't let this change your mind about carnival just try some different cruises with them to different places. that's also something that makes a cruise better is destnations.

We went to the NASCAR show and it was nothing about NASCAR , it was very crowded and was only about a half hour long . We decided not to go to the steak house with our friends because we wanted to see the show. I wish they had a salad bar and fruit bar open all day.

fair enough I understand where you come from because it was your first cruise and I'm guessing you were thought to set your standards high because it's a cruise. I don't remember how my first cruise went knowing it was in 2009 but going on 4 more after that (1 royal Caribbean) which was nothing like carnival but with my experience with carnival and being able to compare to other cruise lines carnival will treat you the best and offer you the best deals trust me I know and I'm only 20. take my word I would recommend carnival to anyone any day.

I agree , I didn't find the entertainment or food great . This was our first cruise and would do it again but think they need some improvement. The staff was very friendly.

please I mean really no one is perfect you must be one of those people who have to make a negative comment so you are shown and people would give you pity. STOP COMPLAINING you are on a cruise let's be real.
