Review summary

First cruise back since the pandemic and it's like starting over and getting use to cruising again. The crew was fantastic, but some of the changes, as Platinum and Diamond members had to go on a scavenger hunt to get their gifts, the pons and gift along with the water could had been left in the rooms. The Divein movies were nice, but $3 charge for popcorn was ridiculous, Carnival has to try and make up money loss from pandemic like this! Ridiculous!.. Overall I would give it a 4, hoping my next will be better.

Sunrise Casino

Too many newer games, bring back some of the older slots

Entertainment

4 out of 5

All the entertainment was very enjoyable, just think with the times that during the comedy show they could had enforced more social distancing, it was too crowded and we did not get to see one show at all

Carnival Seaside Theater

3 out of 5

The movies were great! The $3 popcorn sucked, they are making over 500% profit on the popcorn, make it free again!

Appreciate your comments. We know things aren’t “normal” yet, but I agree that’s a lot for popcorn. Glad you enjoyed your cruise, mostly.

Glad you're giving the cruiseline another chance. I was on that sailing and had a few issues myself. But as you said, it was good to get back to cruising again. The cruiselines are navigating difficult waters right now trying to stay in business. Fingers crossed that your next cruise will be better.
