Review summary

I took this cruise with my husband and 30 year old single daughter. The ship had everything to meet our needs. The Carnival Hub app made it easy to keep in touch with my daughter while she was entertaining herself on board without us. We had room 8457 Aft which was in the rear of the ship. The views from this room were awesome and the balcony extended out farther. Plenty room to acommodate 3 adults totally unpacked with suitcases stored away. All 3 of us absolutely loved this cruise.

Ship tip

The lido aft pool area is great at night. This area wasn't crowded like the top deck pool and it's 18+. Very nice place to relax with pizza, sushi, ice cream, coffee and a bar all located there.

Janice2017 go to https://www.carnival.com/BookingEngine/FareViewer/ select your cruise options and it will shows you what the price for that cruise is right now. I've used it in the past and still do.

@ezepeda .... Also if you have the Bottomless Bubbles Soda package, get it filled before you go to the buffet, and they honor it at dinner as long as the sticker is on your room key card. The bartenders will always want you to sign a slip, and there is a place for a tip if you want, although it can get Tip Happy if you drink a lot of Soda.

Janice2017...danlor5456 tips were right on, but one thing we found was to take anytime dining, that way if you had yummy food on an excursion and weren't very hungry you weren't obligated to go early. You Could Go anytime...

Love the Glory ! Been on her twice. A few notes ..... Take the early dining if you want to see the shows. Guys Burgers much less crowded on Port Days, or return early if you don't want a line. At the buffet, walk past the first buffet lines, go towards the Aft part of the ship, there you will find two more much larger, and better variety buffet lines that move much quicker.
