The partial Panama Canal transit cruise is a great destination cruise even if you do not get off the ship anywhere in Panama.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Would give 10 stars. Ordin, our room steward, was great.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Was on Carnival Pride in December 2019 out of Baltimore so from that aspect I knew the ship already. The ship was clean and well maintained, but I do not remember the casino and other smoking areas being so bad, but I actively avoid passing thru those locations as smoke messes with my sinuses.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Cabin was large enough and comfortable, I wish there was more space between the beds, but I understand the limits. Again our room steward Ordin did an amazing job keeping the room clean.
Ship tip
If you have smoke allegeries or sensitivities avoid the casino and areas around it and the starboard side of the decks they allow smoking.
The destination I booked the cruise for, even though you do not get off the ship in Panama. It was very interesting to see and experience the canal lock process.
