Creator's Key Takeaways

I just I don't really understand. Okay. Oh, that's right. Don't ever trust what's in the app.

Credit where credit is due to old old carnival. These hallways are nice and wide.

I'm actually genuinely shocked by that to be honest. I really am.

It's just guest hostile decision-m and actually it suggests there's a lot of people who only sail Carnival who don't know any better.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't trust the Carnival Hub app for accurate information.
Be prepared for paper tickets even for Carnival's private island experiences.
