I went on a yearly 3 or 4 day Carnival cruise from Miami to the Bahamas or Cozumel in the ‘00 - ‘10s. The experience mirrored flying - started out pretty nice then devolved into a greyhound bus ride-like experience. I assume it only got worse since the coofdemic. Do not recommend unless you are a boozer looking to hookup (collect STDs imho) or love to gamble. YMMV

“Is carnival that bad?”

The first and only time we cruised on Carnival was in the ‘80s.

The “dining room” was picnic tables like at a Sunday School picnic.

We were traveling with a group from work, and my boss and his wife were in the next cabin. We spoke through the hole in the wall separating our bathrooms.

Teenagers totally trashed public area restrooms, smashing mirrors, etc.

I assumed it would’ve improved since then, but it seem that it hasn’t.
