Review summary

Disappointed in the way Carnival handled fog issue. Delayed us for 24 hours in port while it was open & left out in the thickest fog ever.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Horrible. 24 hours at dock due to fog. Port Authority states port was open & carnival chose to sit for 24 hours.

Ship Quality

Some elevators not working and ones that did showed wrong floors on readout. Repairs taking place while we were at sea.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Size was amazing, cleanliness was great, beds are uncomfortable & 24 hours of diesel smell from 3 refuelings while sitting at port.

Ship tip

It was a bad experience but I will give Fantasy another shot. Check weather conditions for any port for time if year you want to cruise.
