I was on the December 10 sailing of Glory and I can say I loved every minute of my cruise!! She is a beautiful ship,like all Carnival ships. I always get a little misty-eyed the minute I hear that first ding that lets me know I have just stepped on board a Carnival cruise ship for a wonderful cruise. Im sorry if you didnt like yours. Better luck next time.maybe focus on what was good about the cruise

You sound like the person who gets on board with the attitude that you're in prison for a week with a chance to drown!

I'm going on the Glory in January 2017 and cannot wait. I have been on many cruises with Carnival and they have always been wonderful. I will say the largest ships are more fun!

This will be my second time on Glory. As one of the first ships to turn itself with no need for tug boats to pull her in and out of the ports was an amazing experience. Not all ships can boast about that and she is quite beauty. The wait staff was great, rooms were spotless, food was amazing, the brunch breakfast is to die for. They have several eatting areas that are less populated, plenty of bars, and the steakhouse is great. I have been on other ships and they were great but i must say this ship is one of my faves. Breeze Is my number 2. Maybe the next ship you go on you will have a better experience and maybe your old wait staff will have a better experience with their next customers. Happy cruising.

I just got off glory 2 days ago and it was great! I had a blast. My first time to the Caribbean and my first time on glory. I've been on many other crnival cruises out of CA. It amazes me how people love to complain. The only complaint is had was they wanted to change the carpet in our room on our last day and that was also the day at sea. I politely went to guest services and said NO. I will not be put out of my room for 5 hours and that they should do it when they ship is in port in Miami. It didn't ruin my cruise or cause me to be mad on public boards. I only mentioned it to show that I still had a fabulous time. I will continue to sail carnival. I truly believe a cruise it what you make it. If you go in expecting perfection you'll be disappointed and if you go in looking for things to go wrong. They will. But if you go in not expecting anything but to have a good time. Then you WILL have a great time! I will definitely do this exact same Cruise again! So smile you negative people and pull the stick out of your butts! :)

Platinum on CCL but have cruised other lines also. We have never had a bad CCL cruise, and anything amiss is attended to immediately if brought to the attention of the crew. Be nice, ask politely, and express gratitude for assistance - key to a fabulous, relaxing cruise. The ships over a few years old show wear, but my home would too if I had 2,000 to 4,000 guests to cater to 24/7/365!! Love CCL and looking for my next cruise!!

I just got off off the glory we had a clogged sink and a broken safe all fixed quickly when I reported it to Roberto. He was great. The ship does need some tlc but it did not effect our fun much at all.

Cruised glory twice. Last being thanksgiving 2015. No issues from us. She's due for a dry dock in 2017. The boat is very clean it just looks old and beat up. After dry dock she will be great again

Obviously another one of those that will never be satisfied regardless of what ship their on. Will have a great vacation and one thing goes wrong and the entire trip is judge based on that one wrong thing. I've been cruising for 28 years and it's what you make of it. Been on the Glory twice and loved everything about it both times.

Been on the breeze..only ship ive been on it was so breath taking! The glory is my next in august of 2017 i am aware its a.smaller ship but my parents are platinum (high level?) And have been on it a few times and loved the ship and its services. So im going to ignore the negitive. Hioe everyone else enjoys theirs!

All cruise directors were in a convention in Miami that week. He wasn't horrible but not as involved. Over all, we had a great time. Everyone goes out of their way to please you. The island experiences were awesome. In Honduras we went on our own after many years of cruising because we wanted to go to Little French Key & they no longer have contracts with cruise lines. Heaven on earth!!

I went on the Glory last year & went back this month. The ship is older than some but I didn't see anything dirty. On the contrary, when you're on the Lido deck & you see open doors to cooking areas, everything looks spotless. You always see them cleaning the glass, door knobs, etc. We did have more fun last year with Hugo as cruise director. This year we had Lee who didn't fill his shoes.

Once again the worse negative reviews bring about the best replies that support the reasons I'm so pleased with selecting the Glory to cruise in January. Thanks Glory fans!
