We'll be sailing Carnival Spirit in May to Alaska. We haven't sailed Carnival in about 10 years... Can anyone give us some tips/info on sailing Carnival these days? How is the food and service? How is the buffet? Any and all information would be greatly appreciated!
You will have a great time. As you know I just got off the Navigator of the Seas and I must say the food is much better on Carnival. Plus they promise a lobster dinner on every single sailing! The buffets are open nearly all day and don't close down till very late the next morning unlike the Windjammer which shut down after 9pm. Carnival has great food in both the buffet and dining rooms. You will love the Spirit, Carnival's Spirit class ships are some of the nicest in the industry because they only hold just over 2000 people but you never feel crowded and there are rarely any lines! Make sure you go for a balcony room!
Thank you for your response! I am looking forward to our Carnival trip! Maybe I'll be a convert back to Carnival! :) Sounds really good and yes, we did get a balcony...
We've never been to Alaska, but we are going on the Spirit for the THIRD time in 2 weeks. She's a beautiful ship! :thumb
HEY NEW JERSEY GIRL!
wHAT ROOM ARE YOU IN ON THE sPIRIT? MY NEIGHBOR AND HER MOM AND I ARE GOING ON THE FEB 2 CRUISE. I WOULD LOVE TO PEEK INSIDE AND SEE THAT FABULOUS VIEW. lET ME KNOW AND WE'LL BUY YOU A DRINK ONBOARD. wE'LL BE ON EMPRESS DECK 6327...SEE YOU THERE!
We are in cabin 8268-I like being one deck below Lido because I can run up in the morning and bring coffee and snax down and sit on the balcony and watch the sun rise without waiting for DH to wake up or room service to come. CAN'T WAIT! :thumb
Where is the Spirit sailing to?
Mexican Riviera: Acapulco, Ixtapa and Manzanillo. Not all that hyped up about Acapulco, but love Ix and Manz :) It's not "as nice" as Caribbean, but the big draw for us is going to San Diego pre and post cruise. Just =adore San Diego :grin
We've been on that Itinerary and had a great time!
Spirit class ships are great. Don't miss the ruben sandwiches at the deli, a great afternoon snack. Also the chocolate fountain...woo hoo. The chilled fruit soups are great too.
