Review summary

Basically this was the worse cruise I have been on I have been on 6 and this was the worse. I have another planned with Carnival in April 2020 to Alaska so I am hoping that ne will be a much better experience. We wanted to go again in September to Jamaica but the only ship going is the Horizon so I am not sure if I can go one that ship again.

Why does your profile only say you've been on 1 cruise..and it was the Carnival Magic..you don't even have The Horizon on here but you put a review on?

I thought the same thing! Lots of bad reviews recently on Horizon. I set sail on her in a few weeks. I'm glad I booked Havana area so not so crowded!

Don't let bad reviews ruin yours Cruise, you make it how it is, don't sweat the small stuff, don't sweat the stuff you can't change. Have a good time enjoy yourself that's what you're there for #Cruise life

I am starting to get a little nervous 😬 I’m booked to go on the horizon this December and I’ve been seeing a lot of bad reviews about this ship...I hope things get better considering how much they charge to go on them!!!
