Your thoughts on the Fantasy and/or Elation

[my2monkees]

I have cruised on the Fantasy 5x in last few years and once on Legend (spirit class ship). I LOVE the Fantasy. I actually prefer it over the Legend as everything is together (all activities - casino, disco, clubs, theater - are all on same floor). On Legend they were all on different floors (nothing was together). I am going to be on the Fantasy in Jan. and Mar. of next year so that tells how much I like it. yes the only way to get a balcony is a suite but without the balcony I am up on deck watching all the activities going on (no I don't join in as I love to watch instead). Even though they are the oldest ships they are in great shape and have much to do

I LOVE the Fantasy. Just cruised on her last week, for the second time. I've been on several newer, larger ships (including the Disney Dream) between my first Fantasy cruise 3 years ago, and my most recent one last week, and I must say that I would cruise again on the Fantasy in a minute. The crew is THE nicest crew at sea, the fellow passengers are very polite and friendly, and according to a crew member that we spoke to while on board, the Fantasy is the most requested ship by Carnival crew members to work on. My 3 kids even prefer the Fantasy over the Disney Dream! They said that the crew was nicer, the other passengers were nicer, the food was better, and it didn't matter that the Fantasy was older and smaller.
