We did a back to back Eastern/Western Caribbean,
The first week (Eastern) was not enjoyable. It felt like the ship was substantially understaffed. There were 45-90 minute waits for a table for any-time dining. This I felt was unacceptable. It is such a known issue that Carnival has pre-printed apology cards for such instances.
This becomes a problem when trying to plan evening activities (i.e. going to a show) around dinner.
Cabin was as expected. Lots of storage. Well kept.
Went to the pool. Had a nice day.
