We always say, “A disappointing day at sea always beats a great day at work!”. For the deals and OB credit that Carnival is offering, we feel we are definitely getting our money’s worth. Maybe try a more glamorous cruise line next time? Lots to choose from.

I agree you, especially about the food. Always cruise food was supposed to be good but this cruise showed that was not the case.

Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations. Maybe they didn’t know ahead of time that they would need to cancel the entertainment. Appreciate your feedback.

No other entertainment? Just one venue canceled and entertainment sucked? You only ate in the buffet and hated it? Not that you will see this since this is apparently a cross post from your travel agency, but you should consider doing something else.
