Thanks for this comparison. I'm pretty new to cruising and took my first Carnival cruise last month and loved it. I am booked on Royal Caribbean in August. The Faster to the Fun on Carnival was definitely worth the money for me. Does Royal Caribbean have anything like that? I couldn't find anything on their website.

 

Yes, I agree that the American Bistro is a fitting choice given the voyage, but all 3 nights the alternative dining was offered?

I was on the cruise and did not eat at the alternative dining but I distinctly remember walking past menus and info boards for Italian and Lotus on various days on what I believe was the port side of Kings Court. The American Bistro was on the other side. I liked Kings Court for quick light breakfast or lunch and I found the meals in Britannia quite good considering the number being fed. Sorry you had just a bad experience.:( Mine was just wonderful.

Glad you enjoyed the trip. In my view you had the standard experience. There is not such like a downgrade of service on shot trips.

 

Short trips are ment to infect new passengers with the Cunard virus. The incubation time is usually one week :D

This was my first cruise ever and I have to say I have been infected with the Cunard virus, so their plan worked on me:) Just hours after I arrived, I was reminded of a great line from the movie Pretty Woman. Julia Roberts and Richard Gere are all dressed up riding in an elevator (to go to the opera but she does not know that) and she looks at him and says:" In case I forget to tell you later, I had a great time tonight." That's how I felt then entire cruise. Everything about it was awesome!!!!
