First cruise in awhile, I’m a platinum viff member so I’ve been to many Carnival Cruises. I usually eat my dinners at the assigned restaurants but this time I only ate once there due to a very frustrating method of seating you. Before you would just show up at the restaurant and be seated, now you have to check in on their app and even then you have to wait 30-50 minutes or more to be seated, many travelers I talked to also found this ridiculous and frustrating.Food choices at the Lido was limited.I will not be back at this ship or another Carnival Cruise if they’re all doing their dining this way. I found not many staff coming around offering drinks like before, have they cut staff? The entertainment was excellent and the staff they did have were very friendly. I was so looking forward to this cruise but left somewhat unfulfilled
