We have cruised on Carnival for the last 12 years and have always enjoyed them. But the entertainment on the ship was just awful, if it wasn't for the Karaoke there wouldn't be no entertainment at all. It appears Carnival is cutting back expenses which fine but most people I think want good entertainment. The employees on the ship were great and the ship was clean and all the public restrooms worked. We will continue to cruise on carnival, but please spend an extra dollar more for good entertainment. Guys burgers is always good, if you're going to charge for seafood that's fine, but waiting for 30 minutes for a basket of shrimp is little long. Carnival has definitely improved on embarkation also. The Christmas decorations was a plus for my wife, that's usually why we cruise on the holidays. Just please try to improve the entertainment. Our next cruise will be on the Freedom cause Malcolm "WOO HOO" Burn is the best entertainment Carnival has right now.
