Ship was late, and had to stand out in the hot sun for HOURS! Got in and we were starving, no food court was open....got to room and some luggage was missing, air conditioner did not work, and toilet wasn’t working 3 days in a row. Each time we went to eat, the courts were closed or closing...only ones open were the pizza and hamburger court....and because of a surgery I had, I can’t have that kind of food, so I had to wait and wait and wait. Pretty much every thing on the agenda was rescheduled, and each time we asked someone for information, they never knew. We would plan a show and get there and find out it’s been rescheduled. Nothing seemed planned, it always seemed thrown together....not rehearsed, so most of the shows or events were boring, and confusing. We paid for three endless bubbles, and only 2 worked, so that was a hassle to get fixed, we were told we could have a steamer, and that was taken from us. Paid for an excursion to mazaltan, and we rode on a dirty tore up bus, the stops were rushed through, sat forever without being served at the restraunts, the stops were boring and nothing like it said. The only thing we enjoyed was the bacchus dining area, our waiter was awesome!

Wow we have cruised with Carnival for over 5 years and never had all the problems you have had...sounds like a case of bad luck. Boat was late and you had to wait in the sun for hours...where was this? the boat doesn't leave you in the ports and there is a holding area at te terminal when you board the boat that you wait at. as far as food tiems, they don't change they are listed everywhere and you always Ave the option for free room service. shows rescheduled I've never heard of.
I was about to ask if anything went right. There it was at the very end. Bacchus! I do not think you could have more things go wrong if you planned such negative happenings. More good news, If you cruise again, it almost HAS to be an improvement.
