First one cruise. Actually two cruises in one. First AND Last. This is no vacation. Always being rushed....always standing in lines to get food or drink. Insufficient seating around or near pool. It was suggested I get up at 7 am....on my vacation....to reserve a chair....laughable. for the price I paid, same amount took family of 7 to Spain. It was evident everywhere that carnival is optimizing their profits. Nothing is free . Everything costs extra. Never again.

Ship tip
If you likeLOTS of people. Always waiting in lines. This is the vacation you have been waiting for, all your life. If you love Walmart type people, crowds like at Walmart. This is your cruise.
What ever happened to phone and keys. You put in a dish then take it out the other side. Did anyone ever find it. Did you try calling the phone. I need more details.
Salty indeed...
Just returned from 8 days on the Horizon, 3rd and best Carnival cruise! 4500 + pax, never felt crowded, never had a problem getting a chaise by the pool, or wherever/whenever we wished.
Food and service were impeccable!
Perhaps you sir would be more at home spending your vacations at Walmart...
I just got off this ship 2 days ago I’m calling BS! U must be a miserable person or cruising ain’t for you Bc there were plenty of chairs at 7:00 am everyday until about 8:30-9:00
Cruising is not for you. At least now you know. We have some very dear friends that find cruising too restrictive as well. At least you missed Spring Break.😯
