What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

I couldn't help but feel incredibly excited at the prospect of cruising on board a princess ship from the Port of Los Angeles

the day was just perfection and the weather could not have been better

Overall, I think this is a very positive development for the local cruise industry.

I absolutely love exploring a city on foot taking a turn here or there and discovering new places sites and attractions

the Mexican Riviera is a beautiful place to cruise it ports off of the Elegance of cobblestone streets and beautiful architecture

The Watch-outs

doubling the fun is pretty much putting lipstick on a pig

The worst and most offensive design atrocities however were in my very own Cloud9 Spa balcony stateroom with Walnut veneer yellow walls red trims a red vinyl lounge and burgundy carpet.

in reality most Australian Cruisers will not see any benefit but in fact face reduced Supply less choice and potentially higher fairs

the truth is laid bare you might think that with two extra ships in the fleet Carnival's onboard experience will double but that's not quite the case

I found that the queues were at times very lengthy and because of the smaller more cramped space and design of the entire Buffet people would often have to weed through crowds just to make their way through the space.
