I'm with allthat815...what are the awful cutbacks. We've been cruising for 10 years and haven't noticed anything out the ordinary. Yes they stopped the inedible chocolates on the pillow each night. And only use tablecloths on elegant nights. But none of that is considered an aweful cutback, IMHO. Rooms are still serviced twice a day, unless you opt for one only. If anything, they've upgraded services with all the new eateries.

I've never had a problem with service on Carnival. Room steward has always cleaned twice a day, our waiters have always been awesome and have had great service from all the staff. What are the awful cutbacks? Mints and tablecloths? Just curious.
