Makes you wonder how this could happen Carnival is about the cheapest of the cruise lines, but I'd never go on one of their cruises. You're right, it seems like they have more illness and other problems than all the other cruise lines put together. |

I always say the food and service in general is what you would expect at a Carnival. |

I always say the food and service in general is what you would expect at a Carnival. We went on a Carnival cruise 25 years ago. I remember the food and service as being pretty good, certainly not 5 star, but not bad. Then we went on one about 7-8 years ago for an (in-law) family milestone event. We'll never go on another. We're looking at the Viking river cruises. That's on the list for after retirement. |

He did partake of some smokes in a coffee shop before he left but he said it was a great cruise. |

Celebrity, etc. Maybe, just different price points? I think Holland America was a division. |

My daughter got married on the Destiny. At the time the difference between Carnival and Holland America was striking. I am not sure what it is like now that it is one company. |

We'll probably stick with Disney, although I've been hearing some good things about MSC. We're going out of New Orleans in Feb on a Disney ship. Looking forward to spending a few days in New Orleans once we return. Neither of us have ever been there. |

The only ocean cruises that might interest me would be one of those New Horizon things with the ship board seminars and historic/scientific stops. My wife is not that interested. |

Been waiting on it a long time... |
