Review summary

I was so disappointed because the ship just didn't have any of the amenities that I am use to getting. Guys Burgers, the Seafood Shack, The Blue Iguana, The Havana Bar, and a better variety of food. No IMAX Theater. TV only had one movie channel that didn't work half of the time.

Should’ve picked a different ship and done your research beforehand, easy as that. Panorama will be here end of next year and will have all those features for you, till then looks like you’ll have to fly to FL for a ship with all those features.

If you were in such DIRE need for all those things, what stood between you and learning the ship you were booking on prior to booking? How many stars do you think YOU earned today?

I don’t fault anyone for being disappointed for reasons that may seem small to me. That being said, a simple search of the Carnival website could have told you all this info before you booked it.
