Review summary

Carnival is definitely a good cruiseline if you are late teens to 20's and DRINK A LOT!  The food was horrible.  Very limited choices.  Dinning in the buffet was near impossible unless you waited until just before they closed the lines.  Service in the dinning room started the week good but attention declined throughout the week.  Sound in the theatre and all lounges was so loud you couldn't understand singers for the reverberation in the speakers.  Thought about planning another cruise but "Future Sales Agent" seemed to not have time to talk with us and gave off the impression she was above us.  I will NEVER be on a Carnival Cruise again.

I was sorry to read that the ship's service, food and loud music were not to your liking.  I agree that most of the time, music is played too loudly especially in the theaters.  Hope that your next cruise whenever it may be is a better one for you.  There are lots of other cruise lines out there going to some neat destinations. Thanks for posting your first review here.
