We just returned this afternoon from the best cruise we have ever taken!!This was on the Carnival Legend - a beautiful ship. We can't say enough about this vessel, its crew and officers, the programs, the food and entertainment - just everything was so lovely.
The first thing we noticed was the friendliness of the crew. Upon embarkation we noticed smiling faces!!! Our last cruise was on the Zenith and they didn't even talk to each other!!! So seeing friendly, warm young people welcoming us aboard was wonderful.
A suggestion though - something needs to be done about the lines and the inefficiency of the folks who check the credentials and get us our sail/sign cards. We waited over two hours in the terminal, on the dock, with only a few people ahead of us. My husband had requested a wheel chair when we made our reservations, but it wasn't there for him so this was a difficult time for us all. We did have a wheelchair upon debarkation though.
