Review summary

I obviously didn't read the reviews closely enough, because I was appalled at the condition of this ship. Common areas were dirty and unkept, there was RUST everywhere. If you are interested in an upgraded ship with enhanced amenities this is not the ship for you. I will definitely research much better for my next vacation.

We are in the Glory right now headed home. Sure there's going to be some rust. Something that spends a lot of time in Salt water is bound to get rusty. Most of any filth i saw was due to people being inconsiderate.

just left the glory from a 7 day cruise and it was awesome. they really do keep it neat and clean some people are just ignorant and make a mess and can't clean it up. and yes salt water does cause rust and it's on every ship and other cruise lines.

I'm looking forward to the rust as well. Life is too short to worry about something you can't control.

negative people Crack me up.... just because you didn't have a good trip doesn't give you the right to post negative comments and put negative ideas in people's head. I've been on many ships and the cleanliness besides my room was the last thing I though about on a FUN vacation

We went on the Fascination twice and there was rust on that one too but we didn't let that stop us from having fun.

I was sorry to read that the rust on the Carnival glory ruined your cruise for you. I think I think that a newer ship would probably be a better fit for you. I hope that your next cruise is a happier one for you.

I was on the Glory in April and everything was great. I didn't see rust everywhere. I do expect some rust because it is a metal ship in saltwater. And, the common areas were all fine.

Was rust your only issue that gave this ship a 2 star rating ? What else was bad about the trip ? What was good about it ?
