trj1020 Posted December 30, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I have read numerous postings from 2012 and prior about bad smells of sewage on the Carnival Dream. I have not located any recent ones and was wondering if this is still an issue on that ship? Thanks for any help, as I am trying to decide on our first cruise.

CruiserBruce Posted December 30, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2015 The better place for your research would be the Carnival board, here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=215 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

princesstiffany Posted December 30, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 30, 2015 We've done the Dream a few times... and we've never smelled that smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three, almost four, years is a long time for any issue to go untreated either on a ship or on land. That's like saying three years ago kids hung out on the corner of A and B street. Are they still there? My toilet backed up 2-1/2 years ago. Should I still call a plumber? Trust me, if this was still a problem after 4 years it would be blasted over every cruise board there was and I'm sure some sleazy lawyer or uninformed news crew would be talking about it over and over again.

In most cases where people complain about sewage smells, the cause is gray water in the shower/floor drain in the bathroom. If that happens, poor a bucket or 2 of fresh water down the drain and usually the smell goes away. This is very common on all cruise ships, not just the Dream.

cb at sea Posted December 30, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 30, 2015 You will get that "sewage smell" on almost every ship at some time or another....sometimes, it's fleeting...sometimes, it's more annoying. Every ship we've sailed has had this issue at least intermittently......I think it has to do with how the ship's drains work.....and the fact that the sewage and gray water are not flushed into a city system, like a hotel would be...

bakersdozen12 Posted January 2, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I was on the Carnival Dream the last week of October. I did not notice any sewage smell anywhere on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
