Review summary

The engine disater was handled extremely well. The food was so-so, and monotonous. Fish was consistantly overcooked. Theater too small, if you weren't early by 20-30 minutes you were out of luck. Ads implied Guy Fieri and Sushi, not true.

Ship tip

Don't trust the buying guides. We did much much better on our own.

What engine disaster? A backup generator failed to work during a test. The generator (especially a backup unit) is not an engine and certainly not a disaster since it didn't catch fire or anything dramatic. They just felt it wasn't a safe bet to continue sailing from that last port without having a backup.

Glad you all got home safe! What part of the engine disaster was well handled? What did Carnival do well?
