We went on our first Carnival Cruise after having gone on Royal Cariibbean (way better) cruise line. It was aweful! It was so ghetto compared to RC that we probably would never even consider Carnival again (unless it was like 100 bucks for a three night or something). It's totally worth paying more for a better cruise line! The service sucked, the waiters nag you to buy drinks from morning til night and they role their eyes at you if you just ask for an ice-water! I actually had a waiter tell me I could go to the bar and get it myself!!!!!! They charge you for things like yoga or pilates and there are very little decent activities to do on the ship. The shows are lame and the dancers and dance shows are laughable! The two comedy shows were the only good shows we saw the entire cruise. I could go on and on, but basically, Carnival sucks. They rely heavily on first-time cruisers who don't know what they're missing (ie: a complete menu for room service, a spoon included in their role of sliverware, not having the buffet shut down at 4pm - while you're standing in line no less! etc, etc, etc). I would go on ANY other cruise line if you can.
@chefmikehenry So you never sailed on them. Just word of mouth. I wonder how many of them really sailed it. From my experience, the 3 day ones are pretty dumpy but the 7 day ones are fine. Either way enjoy your cruise. N o need to be a cultlke fanboy of any line though.

@kristopher3637 Smart guy. Hope you sailed an a far more superior ship that the floating life raft that is called Carnival.

@JVRottweil About 15 people that I've spoken with have all came to the same conclusion about the ships, clientele and over all experience. For that reason alone I will refuse to sail on a Carnival Ship. You get what you pay for. If you take a look on Youtube and view videos with fights, drunks or rude cruisers 9 out of ten times you're going to get a Carnival review. Coincidence? I think not. I'd rather spend the 6,000 for a suite on RCCL than Carnival.

Carnival SUCKS! Carnival is the ghetto liner! Always choose Royal Caribbean! I've never had issues on Royal and even Princess! Carnival has tons of ghetto people with interior rooms that refuse to exercise proper manners or courtesy! Royal is king!
