Following is my review of our cruise on the Carnival Elation which departed on 4/13 from San Pedro.
The Pier staff:
All were very informative and helpful. I cannot speak on specific embarkation procedures as I was a member of the Skipper's Club which allowed us to board without waiting in line. Carnival has a special desk for those guest reserving category 11 or 12 staterooms. It was my 50th birthday so my husband decided to splurge and we bought a suite.
