Creator's Key Takeaways

I saw parents up there with their kids just having a good old time and it's a new memory unlocked simple as that

make sure you ride it on the first day because Bal is known to break down quite often while sailing

the benefits and the value of booking a family Harbor State room is amazing

Creator's Tips & Advice

Research ships specifically for ropes courses, IMAX, or Thrill theaters to ensure they have the amenities you want.
Ride the roller coaster on the first day of the cruise as it is prone to weather-related breakdowns.
Use the Carnival Hub app to check if comedy shows are PG-13 or adult-oriented before taking kids.
Filter excursions for 'family oriented' in the cruise manager on your Carnival account.
Consider Family Harbor staterooms for exclusive buffet access and easier mingling with other families.

Cost of extrasBe mindful of nominal fees for IMAX, Thrill Theater, Build-a-Bear, and especially family photos which can be expensive.
