Disembarkation

3 out of 5

The disembarking did not go as expected. We were informed that Carnival was trying a new method of getting off the ship. Previously we understood that if you chose Express Disembark, carrying own luggage off, was the quickest way off the boat. With the new method they called you off by level, combining the self-disembarking and those that chose to have their luggage carried off by staff. Our level was last called! So we were frustrated by things not going by the usual order, and there was no benefit to any of the disembarking choice.
