Review summary
Ship was okay. Cigarette smoke could be smelled in hallways going to our non-smoking room. Had to go thru Casino for most everything...smoke was irritating and thick. Since most passengers are non-smokers, Carnival needs to consider the majority of their customers, not just the smokers.

Ship tip
Dining rooms are on schedule to get your served and out of there. Don't plan on ordering a drink and relaxing before your order dinner. Not an option. First thing, they want your dinner order. Several times we had to let them know we wanted a cocktail first then we'd decide.
Ports of call
Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)
