Review summary

For it being their brand new ship, they really crammed stuff on it...plus long lines at buffet, etc. Good luck finding a chair to lay out in after 10am...

With so many different places to eat, WHY would people wait in line at the buffet????? Do not go to the buffet right when it opens!!!!! That is when it is the most crowded. Geeeeeezz!

I read an article about cruise ships and square feet per passenger. The Vista offered the least amount at 33 Square Feet. There seems to be alternative for lunch, other than the buffet, and we may try the resturant. There are four ports of call, many we have seen, and may use that time as an opportunity to explore the ship.

All cruise lines have long Buffet lines and hard to find a chair to lay out after 10:00 a.m. It's not unique to Carnival/Vista. Cruise lines are starting to cram more things are ships for sure, unfortunately I don't see any relief there.
