Nope that wasn't me. I'm considering booking her 12 day August sailing out of Dover next month. I still had a great time onboard. Hopefully the old neglected girl gets a nice makeover next year. Love that class of ship. She has some wonderful crew that I'm sure will give you a great experience.

My last time was the TA in May. I wasn't even sure I would trust the lifeboats lol! Even inside my bathroom in my cabin the frame was all rusted out. Crew was great the ship's condition was not.

Based on her current horrendous condition the more weeks in drydock the better! I love the Spirit class of ship and the crew on the Pride was wonderful but she was looking awful. Glad she is finally going to be getting some much needed TLC.

I worked at guest services onboard cruise ships being screamed at by passengers 42 weeks a year but I still love cruising. Quite the different experience! I bet that is part of why he isn't cruising on Carnival though. That might be too much like work for a vacation. I would not sail on a ship I worked on.

Oh you are in for a treat if you book that! The Yacht Club is a wonderful experience and like others have said on here MSC keeps their ships looking stunning. Carnival suites come with almost no perks unlike the other cruise lines. Private pool area, deck area, suite guest restaurants etc. I mentioned in my first reply that the crew on the Pride was wonderful and the itins in Europe are great so I'm sure you will have a great time. However now that my casino offers have dried up I am not booking any new Carnival cruises for the time being. There are much better bangs for your bucks out there for your money.

I was most recently on the Pride during her transatlantic cruise. The crew is A+, food was average for Carnival and we overall had a great time. With that said the condition of the ship is jokingly bad. Even the comedians were calling it the "Tetanus of the Seas" due to the exposed rust. My friends and I were even joking that some of the outer decks and metal fixtures on the Titanic looked better after 100 years under the water. One person in our group had instant buyers remorse when they boarded the ship after coming off some other cruise lines recently but the service and itin is what won him over. So have a good time, enjoy the crew but yes the ship is in awful shape. It was embarrassing being docked next to other cruise line's ships.

A moment of silence for the hard working crew that is assigned to clean the public restrooms around Guy's Burger after this new burger launches.

Thats very brave of you to not be around to check the quality and progress along the way! Myself and just about everyone else I know who has done a remodel this year has dealt with horrible contractor issues. Poor quality, delays, not showing up etc.

One of the biggest misunderstandings about Fly2Fun. They guarantee you will get to the ship either on your embarkation day, next port or not at all...🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️
