Review summary

Very nice cruise...Dee, Cruise Director, is a ball of energy...the food is great. Nothing really spectacular about the itinerary, but the time on board is very nice. A quibble I always have with Carnival...savory food is always really good, but desserts are mediocre at best. Sure, the soft serve ice cream machine..awesome, but desserts alwats disappointing. Other than that, the shows are awesome, the entertainment is great, and the staff super friendly.

Do Faster to the Fun...the benefits were great the entire trip.

Small, of course, but quiet. We bring a power strip...really helps with getting things charged!

Ship tip

We stayed at the Queen Mary the night before...walked across the parking lt to the ship to get on board, and with Faster to the Fun, our room was ready and we were eating lunch as others were getting on board!
