Carnival Horizon Oct 8th sort of live review

[wildcatfan]

Hello we are going to try our first live review from the Horizon this week hopefully to help future cruisers on the Horizon because cruise critic has gave us tons of helpful information over the years. Wish us luck 🍀 We definitely won’t be able to cover everything but we will definitely try to cover the things we enjoy and  maybe some cool pictures along the way.

The port of Miami is really smooth and we were on board at 11:11 am which hopefully is a good luck sign for the week

The pasta bar is back open for lunch which is a great alternative to the buffet. The service was great as well as the food and also very quick.

What type of cabin are you in?  Thanks for posting your Live-ish review😉!

[wildcatfan]

We have never had this on board a ship but a nice addition 

[wildcatfan]

We had originally booked a regular balcony but got an upgrade to a spa balcony and decided to take it. I would not recommend a spa balcony on deck 12 only because they are not really covered. We use our balcony a lot on most cruises so we are definitely concerned about shade this week. 

[wildcatfan]

The sail away party was packed and the cruise director has plenty of energy so a great time

Leaving Miami

Holey moley that's a crowded sailaway - looks like you're in for fun!

Anxious to read your thoughts- thanks for bringing us along!

[Tobleronebar]

Thanks for bringing us along! Looking forward to your review. Are you doing the ABC islands? Sailing on The Horizon in a few months.

Oh, good.  Assuming Jiji's isn't open, this will be our embark-day go-to in one week.

This is Monday morning around 8am on deck 5 

The same cruise as that deck party yesterday. One of the greatest things about cruising if you want big crowds and parties they have it but if you just need a little peace and quiet to relax you can find that as well.

[wildcatfan]

Jiji’s was open for lunch as well, you could choose either, but it’s not showing up on the app as an option for lunch on the first sea day.

[wildcatfan]

We ate in the MDR for dinner and they do have the new menu. Sorry for no pictures except for the shrimp which was really good. Everything was great and the service was excellent.

We board Saturday morning, can't wait!

Can you tell me what your thoughts are on The CD Leon please. Also if you are willing ask him what his favorite treat  is. Would really appreciate it.

Thank you for your report. My daughter and her family are on this cruise. They are from Arizona and we’re very excited to go.

[wildcatfan]

The ocean was very smooth today which made for a great sea day

[wildcatfan]

The sort of live in the review title is because I didn’t have internet most of the day possible reasons being

Horizon internet doesn’t work? Wrong it’s actually pretty good

Wifi is very spotty? Wrong it works pretty much everywhere 

The real reason and I’m sure there is probably a meme somewhere about us

Cheers package for 2 = extra 1k no problem 

Internet package for 2= extra $200 no way we will share

If you are sailing in October Carnival uses the whole month for Halloween activities which is really cool. They have a pumpkin scavenger hunt that last all week so a cool thing for the kids and adults as well.

[wildcatfan]

We went to the main theater last night to see the show Soulbound. This is a regular production show but now they put a Halloween twist on it. The show was not full at all so a lot of people missed out on a great performance.

So long to Jamaica until we meet again. Great day
