Embarkation

3 out of 5

Too many FTTF in the VIP lounge - They separate the Diamond, but not the Platinum from the FTTF's.

Bar Great Service, but the MRD took this rating down. Nightmare for the MDR -- HE double hockey sticks - never again, Dine Anytime - may even skip traveling Carnival on our next cruise due to this. Horrible
