My wife and I sailed on the Carnival Pride on Apr. 22, 2012 from Baltimore. The following is my review of the cruise.
Embarkation-We arrived at the port around 2:30PM. There was no wait checking in and we were on the ship by 2:45. The stateroom was ready so we dropped off our carry on luggage and explored the ship. Suit cases arrived by the time the muster drill was over.
Ship- The Pride is a very nice and clean(although old)ship.The ship design is Italian Renaissance. The staff was friendly and accommodating.
Room 6151, 8C Balcony, Empress Deck Forward. The cabin had lots of closet and drawer space. It was quiet and close to the Forward elevators. The balcony is less windy than most of the others on the ship because it is protected by the balcony (which extends out) of the cabin next to it.
