Review summary

Carnival is not what it used to be. Understood, they have lost millions due to pandemic, but don't take it out on your paying passengers! No mention or gratitude whatsoever for returning gold members that spend thousands right after pandemic. Service has dropped in half. No free in room dining or night turn down service is really not acceptable.

In room dining no longer free. BBQ was only 2.5 hours a day at sea and line was an hour long.

Onboard Activities

Kids like the water park.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Disembarkation

This all ships need a better system. Due to our muster station, checked bag passengers were let off even before us. Out of cabin by 8:30 and twiddle your thumbs for 90 minutes.
