We were on the Breeze last year and the shows were not as good as the bigger ships.

I’ll pretty much take any ship but the Freedom was my least favorite. I do prefer the newer bigger ships over the older smaller ones. I hated the Lido deck on the Freedom, it was so small not many options to sit unless you wanted to be in the sun all day

I totally agree with you. I think the conquest size ships are perfect for us. Triumph size are also real nice. We are going on Carnival Breeze in two weeks, not sure if we will enjoy that size due to the massive amount of people, but it has had great reviews
