But its soooo much fun...Get a room that is on a higher level, you don't feel the rocking as much and get it in the middle of the ship...Whatever you do make sure its not towards the back you will feel it so much, either end actually you'll feel alot more...We were on the 15th level deck and it was great, when we'd go to the casino on the 6th level we felt it alot more

great thanks!! i will def. keep it in mind!... were thinking about it because its so affordable! thanks so much!

You're welcome ...Look at it this way, how many people do you hear of that die on a cruise? i mean we all have higher risks of something happening on the road. Like I said i was so surprised how much I ended up loving the cruise, we had an amazing time. There are alot of great deals out there on cruises, but some are also not that cheap...The one I went on the cheapest package they had was for $1800 per person which isn't bad for the amount of time it was for and all the places it stopped...But bc of what happened to our ship and our trip being delayed 2 days, we got 50% back

I love the midnight buffets - so good!

I am obsessed with cruises, i think they are awesome, the last one i went on was 12 nights.
I would never go on carnival. I would only take celebrity.
Its way better food, service and overall quality.

I've been on a few cruises as well, and would also not recommend Carnival. Don't get me wrong, its nice and you will still have a good time on Carnival BUT we went on one of the newer ships and I still felt that the cruises I went on other lines were much better.

Yeah ive never been on carnival either but ive had quite a few ppl say not to go on one.

Fh's family has been going every year for years...The year before they went on celebrity and they liked it alot...THis past summer we all went on the brand new Crown Princess, its one of the bigger ships around, well freedom of the seas is the biggest, but crown princess is close behind it...It was HUGe and so nice, we were also the second trip out ever too.

My aunt's a travel agent (hoping she'll HOOK US UPPPPPPP for our HM), and she was tellign me that of all the cruise lines, Carnival is the most young/party crowd type of cruise.

Do with that information what you will! I don't know if that's what you want or not!

And I never felt our cruise rock. I slept SOOOOOOOO well on it! Don't be scared, you won't really realize it's moving!



ETA: Ah, ok. I'm glad some other ladies mentioned Carnival before me....if you want specific info about it, FM me.

ive been on 4 and i LOVE THEM!!!
FM if you have ??

Celebrity...they truely treat you like royalty and like a celebrity
they bend over backwards to please you and go above and beyond to make you happy.

Wellllllllll....I've only been on one.... Norweigan out of NYC.

The ship was brand new. Apparently though, some people either love it or hate it. At Norweigan you don't sit with the same people every night. They have a 'freestyle dining' system. So you eat where you want and when you want. No mandatory dinners. Also, there isn't a 'dress up night' although people do get dressed up for dinner if they want to....

So it depends. I happened to love it - but then again, I had nothing to compare it to!

Here is the link for Crown princess, like i mentioned before they are one of the biggest ships out now...They said it is the size of 4 football fields, hmmm i think it was 4...I don't know they had this whole thing on the news about it and they explained it lol...Also its the size of one of the skyscrapers in the city, forgot which one lol

I've been on 6 cruises. 4 of which were carnival and 2 RC. My parents have cruised carnival, RC, Princess, and Norweigian.

I personally HATE Royla Caribbean -- the food and service are just not good. My parents werent impressed with Princess and they didnt like the Freestyle cruising of Norweigian.

There are a lot of misconceptions about Carnival. The food is actually fantastic, the entertainment is the BEST of all the cruise lines, the boats are very nice (maybe not as elegant as some others, but just as nice in its own way), and its cheaper than many others. To be honest, I fond that its all up to the individual. But dont let people steer you away from carnival just because of what they've 'heard.' Most people that have actually cruised carnival before will tell you its a blast. Because of the younger crowd, theres a lot more fun activites to do onboard. My parents (they're int heir 50's) went on Princess and Norweigian and the thing they DIDNT like about it was that they said almost EVERYONE was older (I'm talking like 60+). Carnival has a mixed crowd -- anywhere from 2 all the way to 70. Yes, the majority of cruisers are in their 20's....but WE are in your 20's too. why would you want to go on a cruise with all older people?

I would try talking to people who have cruised several lines (including Carnival) before you make any decisions.
