Review summary

Enjoyed the comfort of not cooking and able to choose from a lot of food choices. I would however move the smoking area from the prime location. Staff was extremely friendly and everything worked like clockwork. Ship including cabin and bathroom needs a lot of upgrade. I also recommend evening programs for adults such as a variety show or more musical play every evening. I would discourage the cruise line from having comics who use the 'F' word as an adjective to connect thoughts and sentences. Overall good price for the cruise.

Hey hay5aj...if you contact Carnival Guest Services a few weeks before your next cruise, they will arange to have Kosher entrees for you every night in the Main Dining Room. The food is prepared by a land based Kosher Catering Company and is brought on board while the rest of the food is being stocked. It's wrapped and sealed until served, so it maintains it's Kosher status. And the last time I cruised with Carnival (2016) there was no extra charge for this service.
