Port Canaveral (Orlando) to the Caribbean Carnival Glory Cruise Reviews

Hi There, I have read this board frequently for many years. In preparation for my latest cruise, I began once again to read daily and became informed of the many changes and cutbacks. I really did not want to believe some of the things I was reading. Prior to this cruise, I had been on 7 Carnival cruises between 1999 and 2006 and I loved those vacations. This was my third time on the Glory. ...

My name is .............and my family and I took a cruise leaving Port Canaveral on July 4th on board of the Carnival Glory, (stateroom 1064.) and it was one of the most disastrous experiences we've ever had!!! We are repetitive clients of Carnival, since this was our fourth cruise with the company and we have taken several cruises with other companies as well, and this was by far the worst one of ...

This was the first cruise for my husband and I (26 years old). The Carnival Glory came highly recommended by several coworkers who had wonderful cruises and experiences on board. High points: 1. Nice roomy, clean cabin. 2. Dining room food was very good. We enjoyed it every night. 3. Shows were great... Our favorite part of the cruise. 4. We really enjoyed room service...coffee and P&J ...

With the economy the way it is right now, my husband and I couldn't stand the thought of not going on a cruise - we have always been on Royal Caribbean but thought we would at least try Carnival as we have heard good things about them - boy, were they wrong!!! If you have only been on Carnival for crusing and haven't tried another line, you have NO CLUE what you are missing...some people have done ...

My family of 4 spent Christmas on the Carnival Glory, I am 43, my wife is 46 and my girls are 8 and 10. Let's start with the basic things you would enjoy on a cruise. Food and Entertainment... The food on the Carnival Glory is "Heinous" the dining room food was always overcooked and cold; served by zombies with no personality whatsoever. After 3 nights we had enough and either ate at the ...

Embarkation was very well organized and went quickly as we had VIP status since some of us were in suites. They also let the other members of our party embark with us even though they did not have the VIP stamp which was very nice. We understood there would be alot of families so we were not surprised at the number of kids on the cruise (1,000 of the 3,000 passengers) though we were very ...

We (my partner and I) sailed the Glory on Sept 6 for Western Caribbean Itinerary. This was our 5th cruise, but first with Carnival. We Live on the west coast of Florida, so we simply drove over in the morning as we have done with previous cruises. The port traffic was a nightmare. To further add to the misery, the port charges $105 to park in the garage for a week. We were V.I.P guests with ...

One word comes to mind when describing our cruise on Carnival Glory: stressful. Practically from the moment we dropped off our luggage and parked our car we encountered one problem after another, despite the fact we had recently enjoyed our cruise on Carnival Legend and expected a similar happy experience on this ship. Security screening at the port (Canaveral) was poorly organized and ...

Background Information: We are a semi-retired couple who have cruised before. This was our fourth cruise in the past 20 months. Made this trip with two of our grown children - a vegan daughter and a mentally challenged son. My wife has had knee and hip replacements and has back problems that make stairs or long walks difficult. Hotel Info: Drove from Virginia & stayed at the Country Inn & Suites a ...

This was our 3rd Carnival cruise this year, and I will admit that the cruise experience was not as good as the other two. When we arrived at our stateroom, the smell was unbearable because a sewage line was blocked. When we returned several hours later, it was better, but it took about a day and a half before the odor was completely eradicated. Because I take online college classes, I signed up ...
