Creator's Key Takeaways

So, let's just say the Carnival Jubilee was busy, but not more than we expected.

I truly loved our ocean view cabin on the Carnival Jubilee. It had an amazing view.

I definitely enjoy when the ships have the smart elevator and they didn't have them on the Jubilee.

I would love a second week on the Carnival Jubilee.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go early to get a good seat for shows, especially in the Center Stage area.
If you want a lounger by the pool on a sea day, arrive early.
Go to customer service right away to request a fan for your cabin.
Plan ahead using the Fun Times to prioritize activities and shows.

Ship feeling crowdedThe ship was busy but not more than expected; people are dispersed across different venues.
Cabin being far from activitiesDeck 4 is close to lower decks (6, 7, 8) with many activities, but farther from Leo deck areas.
Long waits for elevatorsUse stairs when possible; elevators can be busy, especially from Leo deck.
Finding a lounger in the sun on sea daysGo up one deck above the Leo deck or to the serenity area for more availability.
