pseudochicken Posted September 14, 2009 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Hey folks! This is just for pure fun, but please feel free to leave comments. :) This is just a thread/poll to discuss which ship in the Carnival Fantasy class of vessels is the best! It could be for any reason. Best decor, best ammenities, since now some have balcony rooms, to staff, to itineraries! ANYTHING! But... overall, which ship is the BEST!?! And don't get too aggravated if yours doesn't win. We all know each one is fun and good in its own right. :D YOU choose! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemon Posted September 14, 2009 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2009 You forgot to put in the poll (any one "I" am on) so "I" couldn't vote..... Been on the Fantasy, Sensation and the Inspiration.....All great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudochicken Posted September 14, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Ha ha. Only reason I voted Inspiration is because that's the only one I was ever on. :D But that's a valid reason for this poll. Besides, the Inspiration IS the best anyway. I mean, come on...

pseudochicken Posted September 14, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I'm surprised that the Fantasy is winning by such a large margin. I'd expect the Sensation to be leading with those balcony rooms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonniemari Posted September 14, 2009 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I voted for the Fantasy-soon to be sailing her for the 8th time-the last sailing our of NOLA. I think a small part of the popularity of the Fantasy has to do with also getting to see New Orleans and Bourbon St. I'm not a fan of the Bourbon St "experience" but a lot of people love Bourbon St. After she moves to Mobile it may loose some of its popularity. I love Mobile also but it is just not the "party" that NOLA is. I have been on the Fantasy, Sensation (my first cruise-January 1997), Inspiration and Fasincation. I love the Fantasy and in addition to doing the Triumph out of NOLA I will no doubt be taking a few trips to Mobile also. Both are within driving distance from where I live. It was a hard decision whether to do the last sailing of the Holiday or the last sailing out of NOLA on the Fantasy. We had friends going on the Fantasy so I choose the Fantasy.

lollylew Posted September 14, 2009 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I will be sailing on the Elation in less than a week so after that I will come back and vote (since I have also been on the Sensation...need something to compare it to! :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthGrady Posted September 14, 2009 #7 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I voted Inspiration, I have had 5 great cruises on her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted September 14, 2009 #8 Share Posted September 14, 2009 It was a hard decision whether to do the last sailing of the Holiday or the last sailing out of NOLA on the Fantasy. We had friends going on the Fantasy so I choose the Fantasy. The way I based my decision is that I could always do the Fantasy at any time in the future. On the Holiday, there will not be a second time. (unless you go to Spain) Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie05 Posted September 14, 2009 #9 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Been on Sensation and Fantasy. Fantasy was definitely better. Staff is friendlier on Fantasy. The Promenade on Fantasy decor is higher class than the outdated Sensation. the Piano bar on the Sensation is creepy looking with the Fingers compared to the Egyptian look on the Fantasy. 3 and 4 day only available on Sensation. Fantasy has 4 and 5 and when it moves to Mobile I think it will have some 7 day - so it will have past guest parties. I will say disembarkation on Sensation was a breeze and the sushi station is nicer. The 80's tribute is good but the Curves show should have an NC 17 rating. Food was better on Fantasy. Captain seemed friendly on Fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted September 14, 2009 #10 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Ecstasy wins awards for service constantly .... but the ships themsleves are pretty much the same.

gtalum Posted September 14, 2009 #13 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Out of the Fantasy-class I've only done Sensation and Inspiration, but out of the two Inspiration wins hands-down. We've also been on Glory and Miracle. Of all 4 Carnival ships we've done, we've had the best food and the best service across the board on our two Inspiration cruises. The hotel director on this ship has done a fantastic job with the service staff and the quality of food aboard. Don't take this as a criticsm of the other ships we've been on. We've loved all 5 of our Carnival cruises. It's just that the Inspiration stands out as slightly better in regards to service and food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KULPN Posted September 14, 2009 #14 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I'll say the Inspiration just because it is the first one I will be doing a repeat cruise on. The Fantasy was so long ago but it seemed great at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlethepearl Posted September 14, 2009 #15 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I have to day after having been on all Fantasy class except the Paradise. My favorite by far is the Elation. I have been on the Fantasy five times and it is a great ship, but something about the Elation was just a step above the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FantasyLineAddict Posted September 14, 2009 #16 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Mine is a tie between Fantasy and Inspiration. I love Elation too but it needs the cabin updates. Elation has the easiest debark and proximity to airport, etc., but Inspiration is a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudochicken Posted September 15, 2009 Author #17 Share Posted September 15, 2009 This is supposed to be for fun! Don't abstain a vote just because you think you're vote would be prejudice. This is kind of more like a popularity contest than voting for an elected official! Which one is your favorite? for ANY reason!:) Awww c'mon, live life on the edge... YES!!! :D Live life on the edge give a vote!!! I am glad with how many votes there are so far. Maybe after we get a some more votes in we can have more reliable results. Though it'd obviously not be official and not necessarily reflect which one is the most popular in the cruising world, but it would give us an indication which Fantasy class vessel is favorite here on these boards. :cool: How's the Imagination? I might be sailing on her in January? I'm interested if anyone has any opinions on her. Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chachi Posted September 15, 2009 #18 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Elation was my first cruise, so it holds special memories for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudochicken Posted September 15, 2009 Author #19 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Elation was my first cruise, so it holds special memories for me. Perfectly legitimate reason to vote for the Elation! Thank you chachi! Inspiration was my first cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HereIam Posted September 15, 2009 #20 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I voted Fantasy because that was the first ship I sailed on. I just got off the Fascination today and I loved it too. I really liked the Hollywood theme on the Fascination, but as others said, my first cruise on the Fantasy will hold a special place in my heart.

FLmedic Posted September 15, 2009 #21 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I have sailed on the Sensation, Imagination and Inspiration. Then I started going to the larger ships. The Dream will be my next ship as I am planning on that right now. I have enjoyed all the ships so far. The Camp Carnival has been the best for my children, they always ask when they can go again.

Right... but what is your favorite Fantasy class ship? I realize that the newer ships are obviously superior in many categories. But I want to concentrate on the Fantasy class. What ship in this class is your favorite FLmedic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednose83 Posted September 15, 2009 #24 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I voted Sensation since it's the only one I've been on. We will be sailing Imagination though soon. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudochicken Posted October 1, 2009 Author #25 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I wish Carnival would add balcony rooms to all the Fantasy Class vessels like they did the Sensation. Does anyone know if any other Fantasy class ships are going to receive this upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
