Rare MicCanberra Posted September 5, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Wow, knew that it was going to become the Columbus but didn't think it would be servicing a UK market. I thought our ships were old, but it seems you guys get our hand me downs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted September 6, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 6, 2017 That would be funny, hope you have a great cruise and come back and tell us what you think of the refurbishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshirephil Posted September 17, 2017 #5 Share Posted September 17, 2017 We cruised on Columbus two weeks ago, we had a few doubts based on reviews and the fact that CMV is a budget line. We had a great cruise and loved Columbus. She looks as good as new inside and very light and airy. The food was very good, if a little limited in choice. The staff were great, service was generally good, we did have a couple of underwhelming service experiences at breakfast where it was clear new staff were being trained. Entertainment was reasonable, albeit I wasn't keen on the show lounge. I would certainly cruise on her again given the right itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brits have got some old ships, CMV, Fred Olsen etc, but Carnival sold Pacific Pearl to CMV for a few quid. Whereas as you know most of our older ships are hand me downs from the Carnival stable.:') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
