Carnival Cruise Discussion w/ Pete and Sean


I didn't know there was a carnival cruise line thread. We are going (finger's crossed )on the new Carnival Radiance July 20

@monica9 - It's not really a Carnival thread it's just that Sean and Pete recently went on a Carnival cruise, and are going to do the FB live tonight to talk about it. Just don't want to get your hopes up. :)

I hope your cruise takes place in July as it's supposed to, and that yo u have a fabulous time. I have a NE/Canada scheduled in late Sept (my first cruise in 11 years, first vacation in 8!), and I'm hoping it takes place, as scheduled. Although, if it doesn't, I know it will be with everybody's safety in mind.

I think you will be safe late fall. I have a feeling this will all die down mid summer but then phase 2 will start late fall. Let's hope they get the vaccine out by then.
 
I love the idea of these impromptu discussions on some of the group’s recent travel experiences! I’d love for them to do one of the group’s trip to Disneyland Paris last year since they never released a Dreams show about it (just about the ABD portion and Craig’s trip a few years back). I know @WebmasterPete has mentioned some interesting thoughts on it here and there and I’d love to see a discussion of it! Loving these Skype sessions though! @Teleclashter @DisneyKevin @WebmasterJohn

Feel free to join us over on the Disney Cruise Line Forum in the Carnival vs. DCL Discussion Thread. :goodvibes @mevelandry created it and does a great job of keeping it updated. There are some wonderful people who love to share their cruise experiences with ALL cruise lines, give advice, answer questions and just chat! We're very welcoming!
 
I don’t care what Pete says Carnjvsl is horrible.
I've traveled RCL, NCL and Carnival. Never had a desire to go on DCL. If we are spending that money, I'd like to be at Disney World. There's something about the monorail, the resorts, obviously the rides and all the other stuff you can get at Disney World that you can't get on a cruise. The shows and characters are my least favorite part of Disney which is really what you get on DCL. I am happy spending way less to be on another cruise line ship. I love Carnival's Hasbro games and their other entertainment. The casino is a bonus!
 
I've done Carnival (2X), Celebrity and NCL (another one booked this Christmas). I am not in the target audience for DCL. I am quite sure the entertainment on DCL is world class. So for us, I'm not sure if even DCL was the same/less cost than the others we would still book.

We are perfectly content with NCL given the stateroom options, itineraries and costs.
 
And if I'm traveling solo, which I've been doing for awhile now, I can only financially reasonably look at the specific lines/ships which don't pillage me with the horrendous single supplement - something which ALL the Disney ships do. So - until, they change that - IF ever, I WON'T cruise DCL.
