Creator's Key Takeaways

we had a wonderful time stay tuned for what we didn't love

the air conditioning didn't work on the first two days of our crews and so we always say it's not about what the issue is it's how the crew responds and reacts

the casino it was huge but stick around for something we hated about the casino

we hated that about this ship right it should have been a slam dunk it should have been

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Don't miss the breakfast burritos at Blue Iguana Cantina

YouTube Video Description↓

Just in time for Alaska cruise season to resume, we're sharing our complete review of our Carnival Spirit cruise to Alaska! We share what we loved about the ship and experience, what we didn't love, and several things that we absolutely hated. In fact, there are a couple things we hope Carnival Cruise Line addresses from this review before our next sailing... When cruising to Alaska, you want to pick a ship that gives you access the beautiful Alaskan scenery and wildlife, and Carnival Spirit did not disappoint. In this full review, we try the various food outlets on board (including the upcharge steakhouse!), sample the drinks, check out the entertainment, and wrap up the review with our thoughts on the ship design. Rocky and I sailed with friends on this sailing and it was so much fun to introduce them to This Cruise Life of ours. It was also so much fun seeing first-time cruisers go to Alaska! We have several other Carnival Spirit videos on the channel - including some shorts and our stateroom tour. Be sure to check them all out via our complete playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzjdnP6ox56-Ur88t0M7_VzymLD5_HrA8 As always, thank you for watching and the tremendous support of the channel. If you have any questions, drop them in the comments below and we'll be sure to respond. We wish you an AMAZING Alaska sailing and can't wait to hear about your experiences! -Mark and Rocky #cruise #carnivalspirit #cruisereview #shipreview #alaska #alaskacruise #carnivalcruise #spirit
