Jacksonville to the Eastern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

the entertainment was great we had such a good time at all of the shows we didn't attend the hasbro game show though maybe next time. We really enjoyed playing bingo and I loved the clue game it kept you going everyday to places to find clues hopefully they will start some kind of whodunnit on all the ships. Lido food was really good and as always Guys burgers was better than best dining room food ...

I selected this cruise, because it was 7 nights with an itinerary we have never been to. We live in Jacksonville, which makes it a very convenient port.

The service crew was great every one was great until time to get off the ship. We had ...

The only disadvantage on taking one of the Fantasy class ships is the lack of balcony cabins. Other than that, the small size is just right for getting around and a lot of open deck. The Jacksonville port is not much to look at, but I guess you can call it funtional. ...

Jacksonville is a convenient drive-to port, and we had not been aboard the Carnival Elation previously. Booking our first back-to-back cruises, total 10 days, we were optimistic that we would not be bored. As 80+ though active passengers, we especially appreciate the perks of being "platinum" Carnival cruisers. With early check in, we went directly to our prepared cabin to unload minimal ...
