Review summary

This is the 2nd Carnival Cruise we have been on, first ship was the Carnival Splendor and now the Carnival Panorama, both Cruises were amazing in there own way but I do love the Panorama better but Carnival is a great cruise line. I may try another cruise line later but I am already looking at my next cruise and Carnival is my first and only choice at this time. Everything from the ship, staff, food, entertainment, decor, and the overall organization of this ship was 5 star. Gerry was our cruise director and he made every day so fun.

This is our 2nd cruise and the 2nd time we paid for " Faster To The Fun ", we were able to pass a long line and go right into the cruise waiting area. I will pay for this every time I cruise.

Again 2nd cruise, and again we didn't feel the need to spend the extra on a room with a window or balcony. We never spend enough time in our room to make that extra cost beneficial. If you like those kind of things, by all means go for it but if I want a good view, I will simply go outside.

Ship tip

Buy the " Faster To The Fun ", save your money for other things and get an inner room, go to as many shows as possible, ( so many talented singers and dancers), bring magnets ( walls are metal so it's nice to hang things on the wall ) , take a ton of pictures of the food you order ( I screen shot all the menus daily ) RELAX AND HAVE FUN

We were able to get right through security and on the plane with no issues. ( 2ND time out of Long Beach ) We did 2 excursions , we swam with a Sea Lion in Puerto Vallarta, we just walked around in Mazatlan ( no excursion ) and we did a Camel ride in Cabo.
