Hi, I am 26 yrs old, and this is my 29th Cruise, so not new to cruising, and have done a review almost every cruise. We were traveling with a group of friends ages 21-40. We were on this ship last year, and had an OK time, and the only reason that I went again on it is some other people had won a Carnival Cruise at bingo and had to use it, and it was everyone elses vote to try this ship due to the Porthole Magazine Award. What a mistake!

Embarkation: What an easy Process!!! Got to the pier at 10, was on the ship by 1125!
