Review summary

This was our 5th cruise and it was very disappointing. It was the most disorganized ship we have been on. The most disappointing thing was the formal dinning. Only one of the evenings did we get our appetizers in under 45 minutes. Each night it took about 1 hr and 15 min to get served our main course and we had to rush to ever get out in under 2 hours. The head waiter called us to say he would meet us the next evening to discuss our experience and he of course never showed up. Our daughter has gluten allergies and I would say Royal Caribbean did a much better job of accommodating us.

Carnival is inexpensive for a reason. We won't be going on Carnival again.

Food and Dining

Had to wait forever to get served either in the dinning room or on deck. Pizza joint had long lines all the time. In the evening even the ice cream machines were broken.

Do not stay directly under the sun deck or buffet, have a deck of staterooms above you.

Ship tip

Be prepared for a disorganized ship. If it is your first cruise you won't notice. If you have been on a cruise before, you will be disappointed (several other guests had similar opinions)
