It's been a while since I've cruised with Carnival after sailing with Royal for a while. Even thought I prefer Royal ships overall, the great experience aboard the Carnival glory makes me want to check out the new ships Breeze, Magic and Dream.
Embarkation: The Port of Miami is easily accesible and embarkation was a breeze. However, for passengers cruising with VIP embarkation, the line should be clearly marked to avoid needless lines. My partners Sign & Sail card did not work right when you check aboard the ship, we had to wait about 20 minutes to go in. This definitely puts a damper on the beginning of your vacation, and it seems we were not alone as about 15 people where waiting for a new card.
Stateroom: The stateroom was awesome, we had an ocean view suite and it was amazing. Even though we requested our beds together multiple times, they where still I Love Lucy style twins beds. Fixed easily enough without a problem. Room was spacious, LOTS of closet space.
