Review summary

Overall it was a nice cruise, staff was very friendly. I did not like the food at all, I was sick 2 of the 5 days and resorted to eating only salad and fruit to avoid feeling sick. I have had a similar experience on another Carnival ship. The comedians and shows were good, if I would have enjoyed the food I would do it again.

Sounds like your stomach doesnt agree with cruising....have you tried prescription meds? I have to take Bromine once a day plus wear the wrist bands. Fascination is a small ship so you will feel a lot more of the motion than you would on a larger ship. The bigger the ship the less you will feel and getting a cabin in the center is best.
