Review summary

I would not booked through again. Janelle was the travel agent assigned. I could not get ahold of her initially so had to book through main number. When I finally reached her, she was suppose to link the account with family. The rest of my group received 50.00 onboard credit..I did not get the credit. Also, someone in my party was placed on the first floor and this was her first cruise ever. She thought she was on the 6th floor with her family. It was devastating for her. The boat was extremely rocky and prior to us boarding we saw on the news that the previous journey the stabilizer went out on the ship and it tilted. That is not good to see right before boarding. Also found out another Carnival ship tilted during our cruise..This company needs to evaluate all its ships. The fact that I was with family and friends made this trip enjoyable.

The food was substandard. Need more healthy choices in buffet. More grilled Seafood options instead of fried. The specialty restaurants for breakfast and lunch need to be opened longer

Stay within port area..the tours had nothing to offer although I was glad to help the locals. The community needs to be built up.

That ship was smooth on the 11/2 sailing. One of the quietist and smoothest I’ve been on

Was the agent through carnival or a private agency?
