Wanted to try Sky Ride and was told it was a private party for employees only while in Jamaica port. Won’t waste my money with Carnival again

Service and Staff

Service in MDR and lounges was slow. Lame entertainment. Marketplace food was blah. Not great selections. Don’t take elegant clothes because they aren’t gonna abide by dress code. Disrespected.
