Creator's Key Takeaways

we're trying Carnival cruise line for the first time ever on this cruise we normally sell Royal Caribbean

the line moved very slowly and it took a long time just to even get to security

this is probably the best burger that we've ever had on a cruise ship

the sailway party is crazy this is something you don't get on Royal Caribbean

YouTube Video Description

It's Embarkation Day! It's our first cruise on Carnival Cruise Line after sailing Royal Caribbean almost exclusively for the last several years! Come with us aboard Carnival's newest and biggest ship: CARNIVAL JUBILEE and see what we did on our embarkation day. We'll go over some tips to make your first day on the ship even better, go over what to be aware of when it comes to packages and shows, and then recap everything that we did during this jam packed day with shows, food, sights, and activities! We review the Stage show Dear Future Husband, the comedy show that includes comedians Percy Crews 2 and Kelly Terranova, our dinner at ChiBang!, along with tips and tricks to make the most of your embarkation day on CARNIVAL JUBILEE! We also compare things to Royal Caribbean and our overall experiences while cruising. #carnivaljubilee #carnivalcruise #Cruise #Cruisevacation #Cruisetravel #Travelcouple #cruiseship #embarkationday #carnivalcruiseline #Travel #Vacation #galveston #cruisetips We took a 7-night cruise aboard Carnival Cruise Line's CARNIVAL JUBILEE in January of 2025. This cruise went to Mahogany Bay, Costa Maya, and Cozumel and the cruise included 3 days at Sea. We booked this cruise on the Marriott Convoy Cruise with Points website and we had a Cove Balcony on Deck 5. We had an amazing time on this cruise and during this trip and we are going to share each part of it on this channel. Look out for future videos over the next several weeks.
