After reading many negative reviews on various site regarding Carnival Spirit I feel that I need to add my opinion to the mix. From the time of booking this cruise until the date of departure it was a positive experience even getting an upgrade from an obstructed view to a Balcony. Check-in was a smooth process from the time of of arrival at Station Pier to the arrival at our room. Luggage ...

I traveled with 3 friends for our 30th birthdays We stayed in a balcony cabin on level 6 and it was amazing. This was the first time i have had a balcony cabin and i think i will struggle when i go on my next cruise in Oct in an inside cabin. However if its a decision of going or not going inside will do.The cabin was big enough for the 4 of us and we didn't feel cramped at all. When you think ...

Embarkation: Brilliant, we had VIP but it would not have mattered it was very efficient we were on board in less than 20 minutes. Dining: Empire Room Dining, first class each time we went was a new experience staff as through-out the whole ship were fantastic. Always smiling, courteous, attentive and wonderful to interact with, we loved the Dining room entertainment each time we were there it ...

As a repositioning cruise, 3 days was a great way to know whether the Sprit would be added to our cruise repetoire. Sadly, We made up our minds not to return before we were even onboard Since we are used to embarking around lunch time on most cruises, we were not impressed to have to wait till 4 pm to check-in. When asked why we had to wait till then, I was told first in first served, so the ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

This was my first cruise, I went with my sister and my 80 year old mother for her birthday. Debarkation was extremely easy, we were scheduled to board mid afternoon, but when we arrived there was someone to take our luggage so we could stroll around the quay. The ship looked enourmous. Process was quick and in no time we were on board. Cabin already had our luggage and there was plenty of room to ...

We touched down at Sydney at 1315hrs and went downstairs to the train station and went to Circular Quay. Our embarkation time was 1430 - 1500hrs and we arrived at 1430 where embarkation process was very fast and were on board for 1445hrs. The first thing we did was to go to the service desk to put cash down on our sign and sail card. We had a lady who was not happy to see us and told us that we ...

NOT HAPPY IN JANUARY

THE GOOD - The ship was pleasant, kept clean and tidy, plentiful food (just hard to fight your way to). Ports were lovely and staff approachable. THE BAD - Not much to do on sea days, the same offerings for activities just repeated over and over. Bored of bean bag toss etc. THE UGLY - Never seen so many dreadfully behaved children. Parents need to be approached, for the comfort of other ...

Firstly,let me say that everyone deserves to have fun on a cruise. And families with children seemed to do just that. But sailing in the school holidays is not for the elderly. The only reason we took this cruise is that it was a family cruise with my daughter, husband and grand children.And Having said that we heard several young couples with children saying that they would not cruise again in ...

We cruised Carnival for the first time in the January school holidays, so we expected to see a lot of kids for that time of year and we did! If I cruise again, I would try to avoid the busy school holiday periods if I can. CABIN: We loved our cabin. Due to the time of year, it was quite expensive, around $1700 AUD per person for an inside cabin with obstructed view. I was happy that I had ...

Embarkation was great, quick and painless.We'd booked a suite so we had VIP embarkation, no standing in lines. The lines that we saw whilst checking in weren't long. I liked the idea of different embarkation times for passengers which meant that there wasn't too much chaos. Right from the time we pulled up to the kerb and got out of the car we had nothing but helpful employees, helping us with our ...
