Review summary

There were a couple of brawls/fights onboard, very disturbing. We saw and heard the commotion from the lido deck. Don't understand WHY anyone would want to brawl in the middle of a cruise , when chances are they will go to jail, lose carnival sailing privileges, and make a public spectacle of themselves! Real dumb! Other than that, we will avoid sailing to Bahamas in the summer.

Ship Quality

The staff worked very hard to keep the ship clean There were lots of people who made big messes in common areas and you always saw staff tidying things up. Good job cleaning staff!

Ship tip

Just go with the flow! Obviously summertime is a very busy time for sailing to Bahamas, expect crowds, long waits in line for food, drinks. Next time, we will cruise in the Fall, early winter instead of Summertime.
