RumpunchGirl Posted July 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2015 It's been a while since my DH and I have been on Carnival. We usually choose our cruises for the itinerary. So we went gallivanting on RCCL and, next up, on NCL. So we decided to book a cruise based on the ship. We chose the new Carnival Vista! We just booked tonight and I can't wait! I have missed Carnival so much. I'm really looking forward to experiencing a new, big, beautiful ship. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Me & the Sea Posted July 13, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2015 We love Carnival too. We've sailed RCCL and will likely try NCL one day, but seem drawn to CCL. Just wish the itineraries were more diverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCriuseDirector Posted July 13, 2015 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Welcome Back! The Vista seems amazing and I know you'll have a good time!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumpunchGirl Posted July 13, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I'm with you about the itineraries. We're doing the 6 day and the only new port is Jamaica. But, we are going for the ship so we could just stay on board the ship at some of the ports, like Cozumel. We'll be porting in Cozumel on our next cruise in Jan. 2016. Seems like so many cruises stop there. Dh and I really loved our Australia cruise last fall. Sydney was fabulous and the other ports were great, a once in a life time trip. But the ship, RCCL Rhapsody of the Seas, left a lot to be desired. I'm really hoping our next cruise on the NCL Dawn doesn't disappoint. At least I now have an other Carnival cruise to look forward to.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been to all the Ports on our 6 day cruise so might make those days our "sea days" and stay onboard to enjoy the ship, unless we want to buy something at a particular Port. In Cozumel, if you never have done the Cozumel Bar Hop, that would a fun excursion to do. We have done that tour in the past & enjoyed it very much. We may do the Hop once more during our Vista cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have missed Carnival so much. I'm really looking forward to experiencing a new, big, beautiful ship. :D We've done lots of Carnival cruises and lots of Norwegian cruises. I find when I do a lot on one line, I might get a little tired of it. A while back I told my husband that I thought I was sick of cruising. He wasn't too happy to hear that. Then we switched from Carnival to Norwegian and I found that all I needed was a change. Norwegian was awesome. Now, because price-wise Carnival is more affordable, we've gone back more towards Carnival. We honestly love both cruise lines and wouldn't hesitate to sail either. Whatever anyone chooses, there's nothing like being on a cruise ship. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read about it in a trip report. Sounds like a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyawayca Posted July 14, 2015 #15 Share Posted July 14, 2015 My husband and I have always done the same. We cruise based on itinerary and because of that we end up on different cruise lines (with the exception of the Allure - we cruised for that ship!) But Carnival is where I consider "home" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
