Review summary

I only need 3 or 4 more sail days before I am platinum on Carnival; I don't care if I ever sail Carnival again.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Lacking. The waiters no longer place the napkins in your lap. That was one of my favorite parts about going to the dining room. The dessert menu is now on the main menu so as you order dinner you must now order dessert; none of us liked this rushed feature of dinner. The wait staff never asked us if we wanted tea or coffee we had to flag them down and ask. I believe the Carnival Cruise Line has pulled back on amenities but the tips remain the same.

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

When we meet the steward he wanted us to sign a form as to whether we wanted our room turned down in the morning and/or night, did we want fresh towels. We were not given glasses in the room or the bathroom, no longer were chocolates left on the pillow. Carnival has pulled back on service but yet the tips have not changed.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

the cabin was ok. We NEVER had glasses in the room; not in the bathroom or where we had bottled water.
