Review summary

What is with the no spoon policy? Menus like Carnival without the favorites you can always get on Carnival. We have not been on Carnival for several months -- but, as far as I know Carnival still has spoons. This is why I say: "food worst than Carnival"

Food and Dining

As a Tea drinker the lack of tea spoons or even coffee stirs at the drink stations was weird! I took a teaspoon from the dinning room and carried it wrapped in a napkin in my pocket.

not much to do.

The shows were good. The first show was too short - but good otherwise.

Service and Staff

Nice folks - many were working their first contract - they did a great job - But, policy about spoons made their job hard.
