This was the best cruise ever. The Destiny is a beautiful ship. It was immaculate. It was very clean, and that is a hard thing to do with so many party people on board. I highly recommend the Destiny, it was a great time.
This was my fourth cruise ( second with Carnival). My going back to Carnival sums it up--if you want a good time on the Fun Ship, then you must book Carnival.
We flew into the Miami airport and caught a taxi to the Port. The cost of the taxi was $24.00. Once we got to the port, embarkation was a breeze. We had decided to carry on our luggage (one suitcase each), and there was no problem what-so-ever. We did the Express check in at the new Carnival machines. It was very easy. It asks a few questions, and then you swipe you passports and you are done. Pick up your keys at the desk, and just wait to board the ship.
