Past cruises looks like they are back to back to back to back to back to back to back!

I’m confused, was there a reason you didn’t go to the MDR? If the buffet wasn’t good, why not try the MDR?

Um, the Conquest is 20 yrs old. Hard to compete with newer, larger ships, more space, and venues.

On a serious note, I think Carnival is caring less and loathing their older ships. They are looking forward to the day they can afford to retire them and order bigger better ones like their rivals have been doing.

Appreciate your feedback. Short cruises have been known as party ships for some time now. Sadly, cruising has not recovered from the shutdown. Not sure if it will ever be as it once was. Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

Not just Carnival, all the other ‘cheaper’ lines are also “not doing cutbacks”. Not sure about the more expensive ones (that include beverages, ‘gratuities’, etc)
