Editorial Summary

The creators provide a detailed review of a four day sailing on the Carnival Glory, a twenty one year old vessel that underwent refurbishment in 2024. They describe a trip that included stops in Nassau, Bahamas, and Princess Cays, a private island. The hosts discuss the affordability of the cruise, noting that their interior room cost approximately seven hundred forty six dollars including a protection plan. They express skepticism regarding the value of the drink package, arguing that the cost of the package nearly equaled the price of the cruise itself. While they praise the main dining room food, they note that some areas of the ship, such as the buffet, feel outdated or have lighting inconsistencies. The creators also share personal experiences regarding rough seas that caused motion sickness and an incident involving the theft of cabin door decorations. Ultimately, they award the cruise a seven out of ten rating, concluding that while the ship is older and lacks the high production value of newer Carnival vessels, it remains a great option for budget conscious travelers and families.
