Lainie: I think it is important to read balanced reviews. If you find a review that is all negative, move on to another review. I think it is also important to remember the all important question....am I getting my dollars worth. Sure a $1,000 a week cruise on Carnival probably won't be as "shee-shee foo-foo" as a $4,000 a week cruise on one of the other more expensive lines. But then, you did not pay $4,000 either. After 20 years of Carnival, (and only Carnival) we have always gotten our money's worth. We will cruise other lines eventually...but for now, Carnival is meeting our needs for the right price. Are there some things Carnival could do better, of course. Everyone has room for improvement. But over all, if a cruiser packs the right attitude....Carnival will deliver on their part. Everyone should remember.....while we are hoping for the best cabin steward and waiters.....these same cabin steward and waiters are hoping they get the best cruisers!!
