Update: Guy’s Pig and Anchor reportedly has a charge now onboard Celebration. This was complimentary for the Maiden Voyage. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below 👇🏼

I wish Carnival would implement a reservation system for their more popular shows on these larger ships. The reservation system on Symphony was wonderful. Thought I would hate it, but I got to see all the amazing shows onboard with little to no wait and in an amazing seat at that. No drama included. 😅❤️

Just got off the Celebration after 8 days - A huge thank you to you both for all the info pre-cruise as it made our trip more enjoyable. A few things I noticed after sailing on their 4th sailing. 1. The ship never felt crowded which is insane. We were prepared for an experience like other large ships and it never happened. Our group of 7 could find loungers together anytime anywhere on the ship. We never have a problem seeing any show and really didn't get there more than 20-30 minute early. 2. The steakhouse blew us away. The intimate settings and the food was crazy good! 3. The latitudes bar has some of the best drinks I have ever had on a cruise ship! 4. The elevators are working great and also never had a problem catching one! 5. The fresh creations salad bar was outstanding for lunch and a nice change up from the other food you can get on board. Once again, thank you so much JJ cruise!!

Maybe they can broadcast that show to the Lido deck big screen. Then people who don’t feel like they need to be right there but want to see it can catch it from the lido.

I am so glad you put this video out! You are so right with the food and the entertainment they provide. These cruises are not cheap. No one should have to save a sit, or wait for hours for a show to start. If people are arguing to the point of wanting to fight, then Carnival NEED to intervene and try something new. I cherish my vacation and I am quite sure others do too! We don't want to see or hear arguments or see fights! I was on the Carnival Mardi Gras this past August. Now, I really love Carnival. However, I was disappointed with the embarkment day and let's not talk about the MDR food. I went to eat every evening and I often wonder maybe I should have eaten at the specialty restaurants. The food was okay, nothing to say it was delicious. The buffet was terrible. The lack of choices was sad. Carnival needs to know that every family can't afford the speciality restaurants every night so their MDR food should be up to par with the rest of the speciality restaurants and the buffet should match the MDR food in a good way.

I totally support Shaq's Big Chicken being open 24/7! 100% agree with you guys! I was on the sailing with you two (I was one of the guys in the ping pong ball challenge clip from 9:02 to 9:08), and have to say that your ugly portion of the review is spot on. The development and performance of the circus show was amazing, the execution of it in the space provided was an EPIC FAIL. Whoever developed that show needs to actually sit in all the seats to see how their guests are going to be able to see the show (or in most cases not see it). This quality control oversight was such a disastrous belly flop and when we saw how Carnival was handling the seating issues the first day, we never went back and avoided that area during the showtimes because of how nasty people were to each other. We ate in the MDR almost every night. Some of the nights the food was amazing, came out fast and was super hot. Other nights it was super slow (up to or over 2 hours for dinner some nights), and we couldn't tell if the food had cooled to the temp we got it delivered at, or if it had sat out so long that it warmed up to room temp then got delivered. By far the worst overall dining room experience we have received on any of our Carnival ships.

We were also on this cruise and every one of your comments was right on point. I couldn’t believe the seating issue and people waiting 3 hrs before the show to get seats. I was thinking they should move the shows to the main theater but then realized that the circus show cannot be performed there because of the low ceiling. Royal Caribbean has a much bigger and greater ceiling space in their theaters and have done many production shows with aerial acts. Maybe on the Jubilee they will transform the theater. The center stage area should be used for cover bands and game shows. Production shows need to be held in a large theater. Another ugly was the chemical/chlorine taste of the water in some of the venues. Great and spot on review 👍

I just got off and I wish I would have seen this to be prepared for my cruise. You were spot on with all the info. We met a fellow cruiser and he mentioned your channel and I am so glad he did. Definitely will be watching more of them for future cruises!

Thank you once again for your balanced and honest review. We don’t sail Carnival but I couldn’t wait to watch it because you are the best at ship reviews. The deterioration in passenger behavior is disconcerting. We witnessed bad behavior on the Odyssey OTS. It has turned us off of big ship cruising. We’ve noticed that the fewer people on board makes for friendlier passengers.

I love your reviews. I enjoy watching you. Your personality are so cheerful and bubbly and I love that. I like your honesty when you do your reviews. I love when you are doing a live show how you interact with you viewers. Keep on doing what you are doing you guys are great. your energy is fantastic. I look forward to your next review.

I was on the inaugural sailing out of Miami (the first sailing after yours) and found the MDR to be decent food-wise and did not run into the massive wait time issue, but I generally ate earlier as I normally do dinner around 5 or 5:30pm. My biggest issue is the same as yours - Celebration Central. The idea of it is nice in theory, but there are some massive flaws, some of which you pointed out. Some additional issues from my perspective is that the fighting and nastiness about seating continued on my sailing too and people were having to get seats several hours in advance. Out of all the seats in Celebration Central, only a small fraction have what I'd consider a decent view. That'd be up in the balcony on Deck 8 by the bridge and in the front area. All other seats, including the stadium seating between Deck 7 and 8 are very obstructed. Staff did announce that "pushing, shoving, running and saving seats" is not allowed but there was absolutely zero enforcement of this and my wife & I saw some similar inappropriate behavior when it comes to the seating too. Short of moving the shows to the Grand Spectrum Theatre on decks 6 and 7 forward, which is a smaller venue and might not be able to hold shows like the circus show, the only other ideas I can think of to address this would be to close off the entire area and do a reservations-based system (e.g. free "tickets" via the app) and/or simulcast the shows on the ship's internal TV system so others can watch from their staterooms or elsewhere on the ship. They do live video feeds as they show this on the TVs at the back of Celebration Central on deck 6 (people watch those instead of the show happening right by them because the whole area is poorly designed for live theatre). That said, I think they should start staging security in the area of Celebration Central prior to "doors open" times and enforce their rules. Because of the seating issues brings up something else - I noticed many people sitting on the bridge and on the stairs from Deck 6 to 7 on the aft side of Celebration Central. I think this is VERY dangerous as people are always walking around there and may not see the people sitting on the floor and stairs and trip over them, possibly causing injury (maybe severe injury). Carnival did nothing to address this and, unfortunately, I don't think they will until someone gets hurt. Another design flaw (in my opinion) is that Celebration Central is in an open area. It's very distracting having people walking around, talking, etc. when a show is going on. As it's not an enclosed theatre and instead a major throughfare of the ship, people are walking through the area all the time to get around the ship which is extremely distracting and takes a lot away from the performances.

Love your perspective. I cruised on the Celebration in December and agree with it all. Thank you for your honest review.

Hey guys!!! Thanks for the info, I'm sailing on this Fabulous vessel tomorrow 11/21 and I am stearing clear of this nonsense. I avoid drama and bad energy so I will find something else to do!!!🤣 Thanks for the heads-up and I look forward to sailing on this gorgeous ship. I do wish it was 7 night s instead of 6. Celebration 🍾 here I come!!!🛳🍹🩴🕶🏝👙💋

I absolutely love your reviews! You are honest and thorough. Your smiles and personality make them all the more enjoyable. Keep up the good work. I'm on the Celebration in February, I've already decided to just watch the Circus show on the screen. I'm a "no drama" cruiser😊Enjoy your Thanksgiving, and I'll look forward to your next review...

My husband and I have never been on a cruise and we’re super excited. We aren’t going until next December, so hopefully they will take your advice and make the adjustments. I’m going to have to check out your other viddies. You guys seem to have really great info!

Hello, I loved your tour of the Carnival Celebration. We can't wait to get on the Carnival Celebration on Dec. 4, 2022, and look forward to experiencing all the ship has to offer. I can't wait to eat at Shaq Chicken Place. Thank you for all the recommendations, from where to eat to the shows. Keep up the good work.

I agree with the traffic pattern on Deck 7. Having to go through the casino to navigate that deck is a pain. Of course that was on the Mardi Gras not happy that the Celebration is the same. I sail the Celebration on February 12th. It's a Super Bowl cruise so I hope the natives aren't that restless. I have been reading more and more about unruly passengers. My fingers are crossed for a peaceful cruise. Thanks for the heads up about the show. Hopefully Carnival makes it a reservation event if possible.

I’m empresses with y’all, you’re opinions are very honest and I appreciate that. I really enjoy cruising with Carnival. We just got back from a RC Cruise and was not impressed!!! The MD food and service was terrible. Thank you for your good, bad and ugly advice. HAPPY THANKSGIVING YALL New subscriber here 🎉🎉

Been on the original Celebration and looking forward to the new one in February. I remember all those old games by pool and all the great memories. Thanks for your candid reviews and helpful hints. Glad you enjoyed the cruise!

Loves the sunny vibes from both of you and enjoyed all your videos as you are honest with your experience. We have cruised around the world since 1996 and seen the good the bad and the nasty. Nowadays, we cruise with our loved ones or good friends and never share our table with other strangers. Best to have rooms that have your butler arrange your meals and showtime for you so you don't have to wait in line. So sorry that you had that nasty experience. Wishing you both all the best and keep smiling, hope to see you sometime on one of our cruises.

just got off the 6 day caribbean cruise. yall were spot on about the seats, my sisters and i saw the circus but we had to sit ON THE FLOOR on the 8th deck to see anything. we saw multiple fights when they opened up the front area. carnival definitely has some kinks to work out with this ship. an elevator was down for almost a whole day and the emergency system malfunctioned, which had all entertainment paused for 30 minutes while alarms went off in parts of the ship. the food was okay. guys pig and anchor was dissapointing but that mac and cheese was bomb imo. this was my first cruise and not the last but it was chaotic to say the least.

We are scheduled for this cruise on Jan 3rd . Excited to check everything out . Hopefully they address some of your bad issues and definitely the Ugly . Thanks for the review and info you guys are awesome!

Nice meeting y’all at ChiBang! We definitely agree with your reviews. We were so disappointed to miss the circus show the first night and to have to wait so long the second night, especially since my spouse has medical needs. However, the show was AMAZING! We definitely feel that although the Celebration central is nice, a large theater seems better for cruises (and tables for Bingo). We felt the spa thermal suites were a miss for a ship this size and prefer Dream and Breeze thermal suites. The hypnotist was amazing! We also really struggled as Vegetarians (though we chose to eat some seafood to not have the same thing every day), but ChiBang was our favorite. We received amazing service at all locations and are so grateful for the crew! Hope to see y’all again on a future cruise!

Can’t wait to hear all the good bad and ugly on this trip. Hopefully I’m not included in the ugly part lol 😂 😅 it was nice to finally meet you guys can’t wait for the May Cruise Ciao 😊

Hi guys. Sailed with P&O on the Britannia in July. Passengers have to visit Guest Services on the morning of the show to reserve a place for any show they wish to attend. Prevents overcrowding and the chaos you describe.

Thank you for your review I’ll let you know after my February Celebration cruise Hopefully we will get a chance to see that show but now prepared we may not It’s sad when people act like that on the cruise as you said it’s to meet other people from everywhere and enjoy your time on the ship and all the shows and activities

Talk about Sea Day Brunch, we sat there and 30 minutes had gone by and not one asked us if we needed anything, not even water was brought to our table. Finally someone went by and asked us if we had been helped, we wanted to stay to try the “famous” breakfast. Our prize for the lack of service was a tray of cookies to take back to our room. I don’t think Carnival is going to see us again!

I was on the Mardi Gras in May and I wholeheartedly agree with you about the lack of flavor in Guys two eateries. He is all about Flavortown but those eateries did not attend the flavor seminar. Pig and anchor even had bad baked beans. Thank God for Emeril’s and for Shaq Big Chicken.

You two are adorable and very informative! I appreciate you taking the time and providing an honest review. I love your smiles. Keep up the great work!

Welcome back hope your around the world cruise was a blast. Keep up the good work guys

This has really put me off this ship as the part of the cruise enjoy is going to a show every evening without queues or fighting for a seat, that put me off royal Caribbean too as had to queue for ages to get a ticket for the show , p&o , TUI , CUNARD HAVE IT RIGHT !

I LOVE BOTH OF GUYS YOUR PERSONALITY MAKES THE VLOG WORTH WHILE TO VIEW

Hey guys really enjoy your channel and I’d like to thank you for always responding to my questions. Keep up the good work. Thanks again, Ira

I was on the inaugural transatlantic voyage on the Celebration, having previously done the transatlantic crossings on the Vista and Horizon. Have done maybe eleven or twelve cruises with Carnival, and have enjoyed them very much. There was so much to like about the Celebration, but after a fourteen day cruise like the maiden voyage from the UK to the USA, you have time to form a decent opinion on all aspects of your onboard experience. My biggest problem was ultimately with the whole three storey ‘Celebration Central’ area. Initially, very impressive, striking to look at, but once you spend time there, in my opinion, you really miss a traditional atrium area. As many others have said, the whole ‘Circus show’ affair was dreadfully handled by Carnival. We caught a little bit of it, but there were no seats available, so standing near Java Blue Cafe, as soon as any of the acrobatic stuff happened, it disappeared from our view. It should have been ticketed in some way, to stop anyone attending multiple times and allowing other folk a chance to see it. That wasn’t my biggest gripe with Celebration Central though. That was the rehearsals for shows. The breaking down and setting up of equipment for shows, and never really being able to just enjoy a quiet drink or coffee in what is this class of ships atrium. If shows were in a normal theatre, all the rehearsals and moving around of equipment would go on out of sight. Celebration Central at times resembled a roadcrew of a rock concert setting up equipment, and frankly, I don’t want to hear or see rehearsals which were very loud, with the cast going through their practice in tracksuits and T Shirts. There was little chance to enjoy a bit of peace and quiet at all in an important part of a ship. In short, I think Celebration Central is a pig in a poke. I really missed a traditional atrium, Celebration Central is trying to be about five things at once, and it falls short in all of them. The thermal suite and gym on the Celebration is absolutely dreadful too, compared to the Vista and Horizon. Confusing layout, poor signage, woefully small changing rooms, lockers that didn’t work, the wrong instructions printed on them, no hooks or anything on walls outside saunas or steam rooms on which to hang a towel or robe, and an awful ‘relaxation lounge’ area. Still really enjoyed the ship, more hits than misses in a lot of areas, and while clearly a most subjective matter, personally, I enjoyed the food and bars on the Celebration very much.

Hi guys! I'm so happy you are talking about the celebration central because I felt the same way on the Mardi Gras. It's just a bad set up and like you shared a lot of the seats are just bad seats and you have to wait to sit in the front due to set up of the show ... seems weird to me. So, I totally skipped the shows because of this "saving seats" and too many people not enough seats. I like it better in an "actual theatre room set up" . Thanks so much for being honest I hope carnival listens! Thanks guys!

Hey Guys, Great Job the past two weeks with your video reviews. We have been following your Journey and appreciate what you have done. We are on the Dec 4th Cruise of the Celebration, and there are 13 of us with 8 Cabins. I booked 2.5 years ago and managed to get family and friends to tag along the latest person doing so exactly a week ago, we are excited. Six of us were on the Carnival Mardi Gras back in February 2022 and thought the same about Guys Burger and Pig House back then. We felt the same about the shows then as well and I am sorta sad to think of the fact we all want to see this show together and probably will not get to, or at least not comfortably due to lack of seating, etc. On Mardi Gras, people were sitting on the stairs for the shows and at times it seemed that there were as many people standing as there were sitting sadly. It is a great concept but in all reality like you said it just does not work. and lastly, We all TOTALLY AGREE about the size of the Bathrooms. I assumed they would have made those on this ship a bit bigger but....yeah, I do not understand why they would make them smaller than those on ships that are years to decades older than these new vessels? I will send you a video of our experiences for you to share on your channel. I have videos from prior cruises the Triumph and sister ship Victory as well as Mardi Gras with every intention of doing what you guys do but it is not my thing. I usually just shoot/record and share via social media. Healthy food seems to be an issue on all Cruise lines and not looking forward to not being able to just go and get an EARLY morning/Late night snack other than Pizza. Guess we will just have to be proactive and get sandwiches and store pre-bedtime in the fridge. Anyways, thanks ago we are gonna miss watching your adventure on this AMAZING ship.

Wow guys. We sail Celebration October of 23’. They will HAVE TO do a lottery or reserved seating. That hot mess of arguing and confrontation is a buzz kill and I’d rather avoid it altogether. Love all the good and amazing you shared, looking forward to our cruise on Celebration even though it’s a ways out. Welcome home!

Great content as always,it's better to let people know what's going on than not,been watching since your 1st vlogs, congrats on all the new subscribers

The only fix for the main stage is to move it to the theater at the front of the ship. We were on the Mardi Gras and got to watch a show from the railings. It's a bad design for the venues. Is the Jubilee designed the same layout??? Our cruise was enjoyable, but, we also had some negative experience on board.

Thanks for all the info. I’m sailing on Celebration in late April. I hope they can remedy some of these problems by then.

I agree with you regarding Guy's Pig and Anchor....I also feel it's gone downhill. I loved the show on Mardi Gras at the Celebration Central, but also wish that there was more seating. For a lower priced cruise line...I feel Carnival is doing a good job, and I love the new ships! Thanks for Sharing JJ Cruise!

I was on that cruise, thoroughly enjoyed the entire cruise. Never saw those center stage fights, never saw you guys either, but I did see the Ships life guy and his girlfriend every day.

As always thanks for the review!! I'll be sailing in December to New Year's. Hopefully all the kinks will be worked out .

Fabulous review! Hope they make changes to the layout on the Jubilee. When we were on the MG in April we said the same thing about Guys burger. It was very bland. I’ll be on her 2 weeks from today. Can’t wait.

We loved the comedy club’s that the Mardi Gras had. And we eat at 555 steak house. So delicious. Blue iguana. I enjoyed for breakfast . Now I hear there’s a new coffee shop called bar 820. I need my espresso.

I am glad the cruise overall was fun! Happy Thanksgiving and I am looking forward to seeing your lives/vlogs from the Disney Wish!

Thanks for the great reviews of this ship. I am cruising on The Celebration on January 8th. That will be the 9th sailing of her. I hope they fix the problem with the shows and limited seating but I think that will be too early to do much by then. Hope you fill out thier survey and list this on there. Hope many others do as well as this seems like a huge problem. Glad you both had amazing cruise.

We cruise the celebration at the end of February. I hope they fix Guys burgers, thats my favorite cruise food, always so well seasoned in past. I also hope they fix the show issues because I love watching them.

Golden Jubilee row of bars. I am guessing that there's not a Cannabis Bar on Golden Jubilee. Hopefully it will be included at a later date 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿

Great review looks fun. Will say we found Mardi Gras positives and negatives very similar. Especially the MDR issues and the seating in the atrium for shows.

I absolutely love you guys!! I hope to catch you guys on a ship sometime!!💜💜

By the time I took my cruise on Mardi Gras last year they had already made the comedy changes you've seen here on Celebration. They added several more times in different venues to improve availability.

Excellent review as usual gentlemen happy you are home safely enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday.

Wow I agree so much about Guy's burgers! He is all about flavor and it's not in his burgers or fries! Your right he needs to taste one of the burgers not even close to what he sells in all his burgers places. Carnival was using frozen fries to its guests, not even close in taste to the fresh cut fries! If I were Guy, I would be ashamed of what's being served. Thanks for the honest review.

Great review! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to be cruising with you on the vloggers cruise.

As always, an informative and balanced review. Thanks! Sad to hear that people behave that way on a cruise. No show is with all that!

Saw you on Shiplife !

Love your reviews! Honest and detailed! As for the show-reservations? Assigned seating?

I was on the transatlantic and stayed on for the first voyage out of Miami. For this part of the cruise there was over 6000 on including 1500 kids.There was still problems with lifts ,some were shut down and people did get stuck in them. There was several power failures, one was mid show so the performance had to stop. I did see people get stuck midway round ,on the bolt. Getting a seat for the circus show was nearly impossible. There were only two performances and yes there was fighting after the seats. The menu in the pig and anchor was changed. A majority of the menu was still complementary, you just had to pay for the ribs.

I love fun cocktails like the one you showcased in Latitudes- I'm intrigued! I'm always glad to hear about a good steakhouse from a "steak snob", Jared! That's quite an endorsement. :) I'm not thrilled with the theater situation; an interesting idea with a poor execution! Carnival is going to have to come up with a solution so fights don't break out on every sailing! Thank you both, as always for your thorough and honest review!

I enjoy watching the Vlogs! Great work!

Great video!! I’m sailing on the Celebration Jan 14. I’ll report back. 😁

We just got off a cruise my husband and I yesterday and someone just started aggressive behavior with us and we had said a word to this person. They just picked us it can make you feel like you don’t wanna cruise because this was at the end of our cruise.

Love your videos. Lot's of helpful info on all your trips.

I’ll be on the Celebration on the 27th! I will def let you know how things go. I’m very excited to experience this new ship!

Thank you for your reviews! I'm excited for my cruise on the celebration next year!

We ordered an apple pastry on room service and it was the same small size as free ones at breakfast and was over $5. You were right on with the dinning. We did not enjoy the Italian place it was bland and took over an hour to get served then did not get what we ordered. Guys pig n anchor was really good and fast.

Thanks for the review! I think the issue you experienced on seating is indicative of the world at least in the USA today. People are so full of an entitlement attitude. It kills me as I am one of the most passive people in the world. I always think about how I talk and i think about would I want my Grandparents to hear me talk like that. Keep up the great work!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!

Lol Jared’s hair

We were on the inaugural sailing out of Miami (11/19) and agree with you on several things. The food was horrible causing me to get sick (twice). The service in the MDR was pathetic. Guy's burgers were gross and tasteless. In the Italian restaurant we order beef short ribs and fingerling potatoes . We received 1 piece of fatty meat and a tiny dish of potato chips. Certainly were not fingerling potatoes. Totally gross. The ship was beautiful and the rooms nice.We were on the Mardi Gras and loved it including the food. That is why we expected the same for Celebration. But we did not get what we paid for. But if Carnival keeps putting out less quality/quantity of food, I will start cruising on another brand.

I will agree that the Food Service/Quality needs to be better, & I thought John Heald would make that change considering all the reviews he received on Facebook. Carnival also needs to have something other than PIZZA at 2o'clock in the morning. I will make sure I bring lots of Salt, Pepper, Paprika, Garlic Powder, & Hot Sauce when I get on.

I will be going on the Celebration but not until September of 2023 so a lot of time will have passed between now and then to where they will have enough of a sample size from the cruise passengers to make adjustments so I will try to remember to circle back and comment on one of your future videos regarding my experience.

Going on Celebration 3/5. Thanks for the review!

the only real solution to the show seating is to have reserved seating, it would solve the fighting over seats and it would also then be possible to limit or at least try to limit passesngers to attendance of one performance of the show

What a great review, we sail on her Feb 12. Will be eager to see if Celebration Central situation improves. I will say, I've been on several Carnival & Princess Cruises since the restart of cruising. In general, main dining room food has declined significantly. Also noticed Guy's was not good on the Sunrise this past August. Regardless, so many venues to experience and there is ....the...ocean!

Yes it is hard to find a seat at the shows. I am 70 years old and ended up sitting on the floor and the one night I sat in someones walker as they parked it in a prime spot so they could sit on one of the seats. Lucky my 89 year old mother was on a scooter so she had her own seat.

I’m sailing on it next week

I am sailing on the Carnival Celebration in a few weeks and appreciate your candid, honest review of the ship. I sailed on the Carnival Mardi Gras and loved the many specialty dining options as I did not like the MDR service. I am disappointed to hear about the issue with seating in the Center Stage. I am one of the few who like this area because it is open, and I am very claustrophobic. However, I agree they need more seats, and Carnival may need to ask guests to pre-book shows like they do on other cruise lines.

Good review 👍🏾. Looks just like the Mardi gras

I agree keep shaq big chicken open for 24 hours😂😂😂

Fantastic review guys!! I went on Mardi Gras in September. I hated that bathroom. Went on Ecstacy in March, oldest ship at that time, RIP, lol and the bathrooms on there were sooo much better. Seems like these big ships are trying to compensate for something (small bathrooms, 😁 )

Great comments guys!

Just a thought on the "ugly" part. I'm thinking building always bigger and bigger ships has hit a practical limit. Engineering is not a problem, but service quality suffers with the high number of passengers that all expect excellence. The size of the lounges, bars, restaurants, theatres can' t cater to the crowds. I didn't see or hear of any fights breaking out on Wonder of the Seas, but there were a lot of complaints of not enough space in bars, having to arrive 1 hour in advance for crafts or trivia, and no availability in specialty restaurants - and we were at 60% capacity! Maybe we'll see smaller ships making a comeback in the future.

Honestly wish they didn’t get rid of their traditional theaters and moved their shows there in center stage. It’s just not built for it. I think Grand/Celebration central is perfect for their game shows like love and marriage, deal or no deal, and bingo that what it should be used for. I hope next class ships they bring back their traditional theater with the couch seating and all and if they have another center stage well do it as I said.

Big chicken 24/7 💯

Appreciate your honesty! The food on Mardi Gras (3 cruises) was sub par.

24/7 Shaq’s Big Chicken definitely has my vote. Thanks your sharing your experiences gentlemen.

Damn, the Liquid Lounge on the Vista class ships was my biggest gripe because of the limited seating and obstructed views. I was hoping Carnival would fix that for the Excel class ships but it seems like it’s still a problem. Other than that, hoping to go on a Excel class ship before I turn 30!

We did Mardi Gras last year and have the Celebration booked for April 2023. Can't wait!! So many food options throughout the day was the best I've seen on a cruise ship. Unfortunately, there are rude ugly acting people across all cruise lines. It's really sad. Thanks for your review.

Appreciate ur reviews... We booked for next week..after watching several reviews..not really excited..last 3 carnival cruises since 100% capacity haven't been good MG & GLORY..too crowded, lines everywhere & lousy food at several venues..we're platinum but heading to RC & celebrity for next 2..

I'm so glad you brought up the food when my husband and I went on a carnival cruise recently The food was terrible I was shocked because I've always gotten such excellent meals on the ship and it didn't matter where we went it was very cafeteria very little flavor

Thanks so much for your wonderful advice!! We’re on 2 weeks in Dec for the 1st time. But been on MG a lot. Last month we were on (Hawaii) Radiance journeys. Great time, but did not like the ship!! (Was the old Victory that they converted). Did a much better job with the Sunshine(was Destiny)Only great thing it had Shaq’s, which I had alot. But hard to decide on that or Guys burgers(good on this ship). But I get a plain Jane with no cheese, so they make it fresh & can ask for it medium, not burnt. At Shaq’s I switch off between the breaded & grilled. Always the big Aristotle. So delish! So on our Dec, 1st week is a Havana inside(will be small), 2nd week is a rear extended balcony. Hope MZ fits into the bathroom (he’s 6’6”). On Enchanted Princess now. Thanks again for your videos. Happy Thanksgiving, Ellyn

Hello guys.. I was on there with yall and it was great meeting you.. I was the one joking with u in the elevator about you being famous.. I totally agree with yall on the food.. It wasn't great but they did address it on the first sea day when meeting with the senior officers on board.. Carnival had massive supply chain issues with food and supplies.. Not sure if it had to do with all the strikes in London..There seemed to be a lot of cival u rest there.. They had to loaded food on at every port.. I also think some of the issues was the spoiled people on board.. So many platinum and diamond guest on board.. It was crazy.. Most of which got that cruise for free.. Everywhere you turned someone was complaining about something.. Celebration central was a huge issue for sure.. I was blow away by the talent on board.. From opera singers to Marcos Anthony.. There had to be 10 or more comedians on board We didn't attend any of the first shows.. We did attend every show we wanted to though.. We even walked by and saw extra seats for some of them.. The one world show we had 3 seats next to us that no one sat in.. Great review.. Cant wait to see the next one.. Again it was great seeing yall.. Maybe we can do it again sometime..

A. Yes shaqs should be available 24. Consider this my official signature for the petition B. The show thing is insane. I’ve noticed this is happening on other ships too. I did seem to notice that on longer journey cruises the platinum and diamond sailors can just be straight up nasty. I’m a platinum cruiser but good lord the entitlement they have.

You guys are absolutely adorable and your reviews are awesome. I will be sailing on the NYE cruise on Celebration and will let you know how it goes!

Hey guys! What’s you absolute favorite ship? What’s your absolute favorite dinning? What’s you most absolute favorite show? Between the two ships, which one is your favorite? I’m about to book a cruise for myself.. I always go to the movies in the zoo. I do everything by myself. I’m kind of feeling intimidated I’m doing a solo cruise I just don’t wanna feel lonely.❤

Good morning everyone from California. Happy 3 yr birthday. Watched the party on the replay

First of all, I appreciate your honesty in your videos. Some of your You Tube peers seem to relish in over the top praise, or being absurdly negative. Our first Carnival experience will be on Glory next month. (New Year’s Eve day in Cozumel, getting back on Glory. What could possibly go wrong? 😂). I’m hoping Guy’s Burger Joint offerings won’t be as flavorless as you reported. If we find MDR as horrific as you describe (wish you elaborated with details), no worries. Plenty of other venues to stuff my fat face. As for the crowded circus performance… I’m probably going to piss some people off. Sorry in advance. Ladies and gentlemen, Carnival does have a reputation with price point and marketing to appeal to those that may not be familiar with cruise etiquette. I get it. We just returned from a Holland America cruise, and I felt somewhat out of place. I’m just an Average Joe. Maybe even Below Average Joe, lol. I find it sad some clowns would waste 4 or more hours sitting on their butt waiting for a show. I suppose it’s similar to chair hogging at pools (prevalent on all lines, it seems). I can just imagine it: “I saw that table first!!” “Nuh-uh, I did.” “Screw you, I’m tellin’!” “Screw you, potty face!” “Waaaahhhhh” Alcohol? Selfish entitlement? Deterioration of society in general? Lowered social skills amongst the population aboard? Hell if I know. Just sad and pathetic. Anyhow, thanks again for this video. It was nice to see the ship through your eyes. Safe future travels!

omg Hi I saw you on the cruise yesterday

Thanks for your review of this very large ship. I am a first time subscriber because I saw both of you being interviewed by Jay. I am primarily a small ship cruiser as I enjoy the more cozy and personable ship experience. Celebration is too large a ship to see everything even in a two week cruise. I do have one question which I’ve not seen Answered on most reviews. Which restaurants require reservations? Again, thanks for your review and I will be watching your other reviews.I have subscribed so I’ll be watching for you.
