Review summary

Boat was understaffed, and took awhile to get our food at dinner service, but service was terrific. There’s a formal night, but carnival doesn’t really enforce dress codes. One guy was sharp wearin nice suit table next to him people wearin shorts. I get it it’s a fun ship. But I really get what everyone says carnival is the Walmart of cruises.

I wish people would dress up for formal night . If you don’t what too go to the many other places to eat. That is what I would do.

Appreciate your feedback. At least you gave Carnival a try. Many people “bad mouth” a cruise line without ever sailing with them. I do wish Carnival would enforce their dress code. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
