Better than expected cruise even with evolving protocols for pandemic. Masking and testing was not too much hassle to enjoy much needed family time. Carnival did a great job.

Cabin / Stateroom

It was tight with 3 people but we expected that. We had an inside cabin. Our room steward was great and took care of us well.

We added a 3 day stay in Miami for pre-trip and pcr testing. Miami Beach was a blast. Loved it.

It was unpleasantly hot and a difficult trek to do with masks on. We made the best of it and had lunch at the bar.
