helene109 Posted November 22, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Trying to figure out what the difference is between the 2 ships? We love cruising out of New Orleans. I think that the Glory has the Waterworks and no red frog pub am I missing anything else? Glory has interesting 6 day next year. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hapytobehr Posted November 22, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) If you go on the Carnival website and go under explore ships, you can compare the 2. If I'm not mistaken, they are sister ships with minor diferences. Edited November 22, 2021 by hapytobehr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grammybto7 Posted November 22, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 22, 2021 They both have the big screens. I have sailed both, love the conquest class. I enjoyed the Glory more than the Valor. Not sure why. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BlerkOne Posted November 22, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I think I prefer Glory to Valor, but Valor does have the Red Frog Pub if you want that. I like Red Frog Pubs. They don't compete on itinerary, so pick the itinerary you want, and that tells you which ship you want. Glory mostly does 7 day cruises (certainly one reason I prefer it) and Valor mostly does 4/5 day itineraries. Age wise, they are one year apart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyxie Posted November 22, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Very similar ships. If going out of New Orleans, itinerary will be different. Glory does 7 day cruises and Valor is only 4 or 5 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgrmini Posted November 22, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 22, 2021 If you are looking at the immediate future, the bartenders on Valor at the Red Frog Pub are great! Bartenders everywhere on the ship are great. Dining room staff was pretty lackluster though, but I was on the 2nd sailing since the restart. Both have excellent CDs. Really, choose based on the itinerary, besides Valor having a Red Frog Pub, there aren't really any differences. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallFour4 Posted November 23, 2021 #9 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Both are Conquest Class, and both are great vacations. We have been on the Valor several times from here in Galveston but our favorite between the two is the Glory. We cruised to Canada from Boston on her several years ago and then again on the Eastern Route a couple of years ago. The Ocean Suites on the Glory were really nice! . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One way is to order a 4 cheese pizza and add pepperoni, however the picture to me looks like half pepperoni half cheese with extra cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailed the Dream many times, then the Glory replaced Dream in New Orleans. Until about a year or so before the Glory replaced the Dream I loved the Pizza on the Dream. Then the pizza went to hell on the Dream. When the Dream left New Orleans we missed it badly. It was a wonderful ship. But we thought that at least we might again get good pizza out of it. No such luck. The pizza on the Glory was the same. In addition, it started taking forever to get one. They changed how they make them and we no longer get pizza, though I still try at least one each cruise to see if they have changed back. As of this last September they still suck; burnt edges but soggy crust elsewhere (exactly like a wet paper towel) and cheese only covering what you see in the picture. But Guy's is still great! The thing is, some places on any ship suck, but some places are great. It is just a matter of finding where it is great. Pizza ain't it on the Glory.

I liked the pizza when I first started cruising carnival. It was before they changed ovens and menus. It was when Elation was out of New Orleans. I used to get a sausage, onion, green pepper. Now I try to get a deli sandwich to stash in my room before they close so I don’t get stuck with pizza if I want a late night snack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the Quattro is really a cheese stick. No pizza sauce. One time I ordered pepperoni and extra cheese and the cheese sort of floated off of the pizza on grease.

I could accept the old Deli, but not the new version. I might have to order a MDR burger to see if they still make them - I imagine they have to for kids.

I tried some variation, it was okay, but once was enough - Aft Deck. The other two aren't appealing to me. The regular MDR burgers were normal.
