Review summary

Overall it was a great cruise to start πŸ›³πŸ›³ have fun

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was fast & easy but folks make sure your name you put on your rapid covic test matches all your documentation. If name doesn’t match & you been cruising. They will check your date of birth & address. Then you will have to pay $150 to carnival for a rapid test on site. But in all is very smooth checking 😎

How different was you name on your covid test? Do you need middle name shown?
