We love Carnival especially the Pride ( it is our favorite Ship so far ) the cruise was a blast. The food in the MDR is the best. The staff and crew are Fantastic very Friendly. We like all the choices they give you on the Lido deck. The shows are good.Our cabin was great very spacious and clean ( that is what we love about Carnival is the bathroom is big enough for 2 to get ready at same time )The meet & mingle was less the to be desired . The room was set-up nice but know one knew what the Heck was going on ( No official rep, nothing and the time was all wrong 4:15 on the last Sea day ) . We went on other cruise in Jan. of 2016 for B-day Celebration and the Meet & Mingle was a blast over 100 people where there and it was on the first Sea Day ( the even had a Slots Pull and Cabin Crawl ) This will not stop us from using Cruise Critics or never going on Carnival . we are in the process of booking our next cruise ( trying New England , Canada next ) and we still use and recommend Cruise Critics to anyone to find information on all Cruise Lines ..
