Review summary

Overall it was a great cruise, yes disappointed that we did not go to Bermuda, but I don’t think following a Hurricane in the Atlantic is a good idea since our port was in Bermuda with overnight stay. Carnivals 25% off a future cruise was nice, but I think that could have done better. We ended up going to Princess Cay and Nassau

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Carnival did a great job, much different experience than we had with our previous two departures on the Ecstasy, but it seemed to keep the registration process moving with little delay

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Had pork chop, veal parmesan, prime rib, chicken and filet mignon with lobster tail. Ate at Fahrenheit 555, wow awesome. Shame on those who complain about the food, all dinners were hot and exceeded expectations.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Because we bought more than 2 litres we needed to see a Customs agent on the ship, this process could have been even smoother if more Carnival employees were in the area for traffic control. Once we completed this, we were on the airport shuttle within 20 minutes
