Anyone been on the Carnival Glory?

Question

I am going to the Eastern Caribbean next year, and have never been on a Conquest class ship before. I have been told that you can never go back to a smaller ship after this. Is this true?

Answer 1

I have been on the Carnival Glory, I went on it when it first came out. I did not like the Carnival Glory, it was a very confusing ship to get around. It is a very pretty ship and I suggest you go to the fine dining restaurant that they charge additional for and get the creme burlee it is to die for. You will have fun but I bet by the time you get off the ship you will still be confused of how to get from here to there. I have been on several other carnival ships and never had a problem, miracle , legend , and the paradise. I have to say cruising is the way to go to get the most from your vacation dollar. I hope you enjoy your cruise.

Answer 2

No it's not true.  It absolutely depends on the ship, the type of cruise and the geographic location.

I personally love ships in the 50,000 - 70,000 ton category where there are 1500 to 1900 passengers.  I have also been on the new Freedom of the Seas - the biggest ship ever built at 148,000 tons.  It's just too big!  The Glory is 110,000 tons and carries almost 3000 passengers.

Earlier this year I went to the Galapagos on the Celebrity Xpedition - like a private yacht - its less than 3000 tons, and only accommodates 90 guests.  It was the best cruise we ever took!

My advice is to find an itinerary and life style that appeals to you, call a travel agent, and enjoy.
