Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

We had free drinks everywhere on board. Main dining room showed evidence of some cutbacks but was still pretty good. We went to the steak venue one night and it was super. We lunched at the buffets and it too was pretty good.

Platinum Restaurant

5 out of 5

Platinum dining room was pretty good. The atmosphere was enhanced by a great dining team that took great care of us.

Emerald Room Steakhouse

Emerald Steak room was a big plus. It was worth every penny of the price increase.

The violin trio was a big plus. They were great.

Carnival SeasideTheater

3 out of 5

We were disappointed in the selection of movies but realize that it is hard to find a movie to appeal to this diverse crowd.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Waiters, room stewards, casino staff were all first rate.

This ship is well maintained for being 20 years old.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

3 out of 5

We have been to these ports many times. We just walked around them. Visited Captain Tony’s and Hogs breath Bar. Both are historic and worth a trip.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5

Disembarking was a mess. It could use better organization. There was a great deal of crowding, pushing and shoving as guests tried to be the first out.
