Review summary

I understand cruises are to have fun but when the cruise hasn't even started and at least 50% of the passengers are already on their way to being very intoxicated and it starts again at 8 am the next morning. Holy Cow. Carnival is really going downhill, getting cheap. Now you have to ask for bathrobes. My daughter and son n law never did get their pool towels. The steakhouse was good as was the chef's table, but the Lido deck was boring. The dining rooms were a joy because of our waiters Dragon and DragonFly and their expertise of the menu. If not for the Cabin Steward Jose and the above-named waiters this cruise would have been on my list as the worst ever. And don't get me started on the itinerary flip-flop, yup Carnival does it again.

Ship tip

If you want a party barge then cruise Carnival, if you want something a little classier look elsewhere.

There's drunks on every cruise line. It mostly depends on the time of year you go, itiniary, and length.

That's crazy we went on the Conquest at the end of last month and our itinerary was changed as well. Even though we purchased insurance we couldn't get a refund like those who purchased insurance from companies other than Carnival.

I take it you weren't in the 50% having fun

Totally agree, and that is why we’re ‘loyal to Royal ‘!

We switched to Norwegian for these same reasons

That's a shame. We had a blast last August.
