Review summary

This is a beautiful ship and I would love to see the cruise lines get back in to business. Its too bad this Carnival does not enforce mask rules and CDC guidelines. This is a scary place if you are trying to be careful about Covid 19.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

It was fast, but people were wearing masks way below noses and it felt unsafe

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

In buffet people were walking around with masks pulled down if they even wore then at all. Staff were not enforcing mask rules. I asked 2 managers about this and they said "there is really nothing we can do.:" This ship does not feel safe to me and scary as far as Covid 19

Service and Staff

1 out of 5

Staff not only did not enforce mask rules, but cocktail staff pull down mask to ask if you want a drink while they are 2' from your face. I found this unsafe and offensive. Where is the management on this ship?

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

Ship tip

Don't try cruise yet unless you prefer no mask and think Covid 19 is a hoax

Not wearing a mask and thinking that COVID-19 is a hoax are two totally different things.

I can understand why no business wants to try and enforce the mask mandate. It’s a no-win situation. I’m not sure why vaccinated people who wear masks are so concerned about whether others are wearing them or not.

You have read about fights on airlines over mask wearing, and you expect cruise staff to enforce wearing masks?

Appreciate your feedback. Interesting that you had a no mask experience while others had the opposite. Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

If you are vaccinated and wearing a mask, I wouldn’t worry too much about what other people were doing. If you’re that concerned at this point, you probably don’t need to be traveling.

Totally inaccurate unless you are an absolute mask phanatic. Very few without masks indoors. And why would a vaccinated person be concerned.
