This was our 7th cruise with Carnival, our first time on the Conquest. We were Cruising with two other couples, and my wife and I were celebrating our 20th anniversary.
Well, before I start let me say I like Carnival Cruise Line (I used to love them) but they need to start looking at some of the cruise reviews people are posting before they lose long time customers. A lot of the criticisms in the reviews are pretty close to the mark (but you do have your whiners, so you try and weed those reviews out).
Embarkation: They have to change the embarkation process in New Orleans, period. They separate you by floors and cabin number, whatever happen to first come first serve. We stood in line for 45 min because they only had 3 people working are floor. This was by far the worst Embarkation process that I have ever been through.
7375 balcony- It was a nice room but had a lot of maintenance issues. The room is located across for a crew entry area and you get a lot of traffic from the crew moving on and off the floor. Great balcony but, beware of all the smokers we had a group of 4 next door that smoked all the time so we could not enjoy the view for very long or have the door open before we got smoked out.
