I can see the decline in Carnival Cruise Lines since my June, 2010 cruise on the Glory. I don't think this decline only relates to the Pride. I noticed food and service deficiencies on the Glory. Getting back to the Pride, I live in Philadelphia, and I did not want to fly to pick up a ship this year so Baltimore seemed the way to go. Baltimore is a lovely city, and I should have stayed there during the week of 11/28 through 12/5. Prior to my cruise, I read many negative reviews about the Pride, especially since July, 2010. In fact, I emailed the Carnival Guest Care Department to discuss my concerns. I was advised that in early November, 2010 the Pride was being dry-docked for a refurbishment. I was also advised that the concerns I mentioned were never brought to their attention.

My past experience on the Carnival Spirit (Alaska 2009) was fantastic. Carnival has really gone way downhill since that time. Having travelled on many cruise lines, at one time I considered Carnival to be rising to the occasion and getting better. Boy, was I wrong.

All negative reviews on the Pride were right on target.
