Carnival New Orleans Cruise Reviews

This was our second sailing since the lockdowns, and Jan 2020. Had 17 cancels and re-books. Did a Royal late October. Did this Carnival to get a comparison in today's covid environment. We have been on 35+ cruises. As we booked this kind of late. We did not have a lot balcony choices. Our cabin was 6456. We did the any time timing. Had to use the app to tell the system we were ready to eat. ...

Background: We had initially booked a cruise on another Carnival ship for October 2020, but when that was cancelled due to COVID shutdowns, we decided to wait a while before using our rebooking incentive. When it finally appeared as though the return to cruising was getting near, we got serious about rebooking. This sailing on the Valor caught our eye as we had never sailed out of New Orleans ...

My Wife and I cruised on the Glory Aug. 14-21, 2022. We had a fun week. As we get older we look at different parts of a cruise that make it fun. This cruise we didn't attend any Shows in the Amber Lounge and we normally see them all. We didn't play Bingo at all. My wife spends a little time in the casino and she enjoyed that. I put my $25 free play in the $1 machine and it lasted 31 pops. I was ...

We did the Montego Bay, Grand Cayman & Cozumel itinerary. All the ports were nice, well timed and friendly. The ship itself was very clean & well maintained. Our balcony cabin on deck 7 was roomy enough for 3 of us (we also had an oceanview cabin for our group) and our cabin stewardess did a fine job taking care of it and us. The food in the main dining room was outstanding breakfast & dinner on ...

My wife and I have been on 16 cruises each, inclusive of this one. We had a balcony room on Deck 6 fore. The room was excellent, although it lacked air conditioning the first two nights. They made it up by turning the room into a meat locker for the rest of the cruise. Our cabin steward was truly outstanding. We ate breakfast and lunch in the lido buffet restaurant on Deck 9 and dinner in the ...

My wife and I booked this cruise many months ago thinking that we would be done with Covid issues by the time the cruise began... we were wrong and masks and vacinations were still required. It didnt matter, everyone was respectful, service was great, and staff were very helpful. To get this out from the start, this is the cruise where a woman jumped off on the last at sea day. It put a ...

The cruise itself was affordable and a great way to celebrate a birthday. The weather was very overcast for the most part but still enjoyed the beauty of the islands and ocean. I had a spa service that was excellent, a deep tissue massage. The group I was with all enjoyed numerous spa services and were very pleased. We did lose a passenger this trip and that was definitely a situation I hope many ...

First time on Carnival. Flew to New Orleans from Ohio on Sunday. Boarding Monday morning was easy. Two bags left with porters and moved quickly after checks of vaccination cards, testing papers and passport. 15 minutes and we were on the ship. Went to Lido deck and had good burritos, tacos at Blue Iguana cafe. Muster drill was so easy. Went to station, we were the only ones there. 5 minutes ...

Recently completed our 2nd cruise on the Valor. The only ship we have ever sailed on twice. Was it a different experience? Yes, but would have to be because of the pandemic. Some things were better or at least about the same and some were not as good. When comparing I will start with the entertainment. The offering in the Red Frog Pub (Our go to hangout) was not near as entertaining as our ...

This was my third cruise on Carnival in 4 months. My first out of NOLA. The terminal in NOLA is very nice, we walked right through and checked in quickly. Once on the ship, we had a suite, so we got our stateroom right away. The room was wonderful. The cruise was only about 50% capacity so we never had to stand in line or wait long for food or drinks. Overall, the staff was not as friendly as the ...
