PenguinLife Posted October 15, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I hope that this can be a productive message thread and not turn into a long rant, therefore I suggest we limit our complaints to 3 line items each and only agree/disagree with previous complaints or add ones of our own: My top 3 in no particular order: 1, Announcing sales in the spa and such over the ships intercom to drum up business. 2, The buffet dessert bar with a dozen plus mediocre quality dishes, I would prefer if they had 3 or 4 quality ones instead. 3, I wish they would do a better job of controlling the rowdy passengers, I personally don't like to hear people yelling and partying in the halls at 3 am while I am trying to sleep.

Jimmy Geegitz Posted October 15, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1, I wish they served hot breakfast room service. 2. Wish they had an Exclusive Karoke bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisenotbooze Posted October 15, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 15, 2011 i wish they had more things to do like other lines. rock climbing wall, skating rink, surf rider..ect... although... i have never cruised, looked at both lines and chose carnival due to the fact that 1. we are not bringing the kids 2. carnival was WAY cheaper 3. carnival has somewhat smaller ships = less passengers. so i guess it depends on what you really are looking for in a cruise.

blondietink Posted October 15, 2011 #7 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1. The lounge where they put on the shows and have some other activities is FREEZING COLD! 2. The pool water is too cold. Wish they would heat it somehow. Salt water, fresh water, I don't care, just warm it up a bit. 3. They don't keep the young kids out of the hot tubs!

Billzilla66 Posted October 15, 2011 #8 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Here are my 3 things I don't like about Carnival cruises. 1) It's taking too long to get to my cruise, I wish they would shorten the year. 2) They haven't yet called me for a free cabin upgrade! What, do i have to have the cabin I already chose?!? 3) They need a better jingle or something so I can be humming it abesnt-mindedly while I'm at work. Oh, as for the OP's 3rd, I can sleep through severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, and earthquakes. I don't think roudy partiers will be a problem.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Mach* Posted October 15, 2011 #9 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Yep... others have said it... I hate having to debark. It takes too long to get to the next cruise and some of the guests I could do without. The ships... the staff, crew and the experience have never disappointed me... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloepoke Posted October 15, 2011 #11 Share Posted October 15, 2011 my three would be ... 1. chair hogs. and the fact carnival doesn't do anything but shrug ... 2. would love more veggie options in the MDR. or, at least some with protein. 3. carnival can't bend time and make my 8-day cruise turn into a month-long cruise ...

magic&buddy Posted October 15, 2011 #12 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Two big complaints........... 1) They always insist I get off the ship at the end of the cruise 2) That I am not on one right now ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogimax Posted October 15, 2011 #13 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Some of the older, smaller ships are very smoky in the casino and indoor areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibby1 Posted October 15, 2011 #15 Share Posted October 15, 2011 The last time we cruised on Carnival, the sound system was so loud for the evening shows that it really hurt our ears. I hope that has changed since we were last on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbaby2 Posted October 15, 2011 #16 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1) chair hogs :eek: 2) ordering room service and getting the right food and items :confused: 3) making me get off the ship when it docks :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatloafsfan Posted October 15, 2011 #18 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1. No dedicated lounge for kareoke (I agree with a previous poster). 2. No hot foods on the room service menu (would love a burger). 3. They make it too darn tempting to book another cruise, and then another, and another, and another........:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5waldos Posted October 15, 2011 #19 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I wish they would be a little less concrete when it comes to room service- send water for the group (2 or 4 or whatever) not a single glass if I ask for water, send salt and pepper, butter and jam- all without asking for it. Bit tiresome to have to think about every single item. Or at least (if you call) give the people a list of things you probably want- do you want water? How many? etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdstrom Posted October 15, 2011 #20 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1. Chair hogs. 2. Ships with only ONE pool, aka human stew pot (Fantasy class). 3. Some staff not doing their jobs. (Don't get me started on this one!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwannaGo Now Posted October 15, 2011 #24 Share Posted October 15, 2011 1..I hate it when the CD (Cruise Director, not Cross Dresser) begs, cries, and grovels to mark the comment cards for the highest rating on everything....."because anything else is less than acceptable to CCL." 2..Make solo traveling less than double the price. 3..Throw rude passengers overboard!!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
