So nice to be one of the first on the boat, you probably were able to get around and see a few things before it got crowded. Even though we’ve only been on 2 cruises, the staff is always top tier, they make it such an experience! Enjoyed hearing about what you loved most and didn’t, thanks for the honest review on the Carnival Magic!
One thing they could have done better on our last cruise was communicate. We were delayed getting back into Miami in early December but they didn’t tell us we can stay in our rooms longer until way late in the morning. I was lucky i had the foresight not to leave our room but my parents did and they started cleaning theirs.
