Just returned from the 5 night Carnival Victory cruise from New York City to Eastern Canada. This review is of particular interest to Canadians and other non-US citizens. Have been on 4 other cruises (different lines, one being Carnival). We are a family of 4, with 2 young adult children. We had a fabulous time, and have only excellent critique of this cruise.
Embarkation- Bit confusing as there is no separate line for non-US citizens. Not all the agents are trained for non-US, and so they kept pulling the US citizens out of line to go in front of us. Nonetheless, we were through and in our cabins within an hour. Cab from La Guardia into the city is under $50 US . Cruise charges $35 per person for the transfer.
Cabins- Boasts the Carnival Comfy Bed, which is truly the best bed we ever spent in on a ship. Lovely all white linen and duvet! Very spacious, lots of storage space.
