@Acameron10 I think each and every ship we are on makes everything lighten up!! Each ship has its own personality! I love to cruise!

I have to agree that the Pride is one of the few "dark" ships. Compared to the Sunshine or the Breeze the decor is dark, especially some hallways. It doesn't make much difference to me because I love to cruise and in fact, I'm booked on the Pride next October for my granddaughter's wedding! It's all what you make of it.

So I gained 5 pounds from "just OK food?" Somebody really doesn't like cruising.

Not dark to me and smoke is in every carnival casino something to avoid by not going to the casino I loved the Pride

Strawberrikat, wear a mask in the casino. That's what I do. You can pick up a handful from any dr office or hospital entrance and take them in your suitcase.

Natural light throughout the ship. Dark when you walk in from outside, yes, but be an optimist, that means it was sunny outside. As for the smoke, I don't like it either, but Carnival weighs the complaints of the non smokers vs the $$ brought in by the smokers in the casino. The smokers keep the cost of the cruise down for everyone else by leaving pay checks in the slots. Thank you smokers.
