ps one complaint I see on these boards: I never even met my cabin steward. This happened to us on a cruise a couple of years ago. It would have been nice to see him/her, but our room was always cleaned and everything in order and handled promptly, I could have cared less about who he/she was. It's like the towel animals. They are super fun, but have little to do with the overall efficentcy of the person responsible for keeping my cabin clean and well stocked with whatever. NMnita

i agree NMnita...we were on a cruise where we didn't meet our steward for two days...
the problem i had with carnival: we checked in...and by 3 or 4pm our cabin was still untouched..
i had to call the pursers desk to get it made up.
in that instance i was really ticked...until i found out that the cabin stewarts were also assigned other jobs...ergo they were not available except during very short time spans during the day.
a phone call to obtain stewart service was unanswered several times..so i merely called the pursers desk.
my answer is to not sail carnival again...i was disappointed in the service..however...
the FOOD WAS AWESOME on the inspiration
