Additional details

Sail Date: Jan 1970

I will attempt to write a review that will be helpful to someone wishing to go on this cruise. Therefore I will only include details that I think would have been helpful to me and nothing about my server, the airport lines, other cruisers, the room steward, or anything else that you most likely won't encounter.

The Ship: This was my 5th cruise. (3rd time on Carnival.) Though the layout is very similar to other Carnival ships, I liked this one the least. It was made VERY narrow so it could fit through the Panama Canal. Being very long and narrow makes it rock more than other ships (even smaller ones). A few people said they felt nauseous in the beginning. Public areas were nice. Nothing too exciting if you have been on other cruises. The water slide is all the way to the back of the ship and not open very often. My 13-year-old daughter felt it was too slow and only went down once.

The Staff: Very friendly with the exception of wait staff in main dining room for other than evening meals. Your tips go to the staff that serves your dinner. Breakfast and lunch are open seating so you get different servers each time. It is obvious they are not as friendly when their tips do not depend on your happiness. I recommend eating all your meals except dinner up on Lido deck. The food is just as good and often better there anyway.
