Newbie on Carnival ??? about my first cruise

[motherchic]

I have cruised on other lines but we are considering our first Carnival cruise.

We are looking at a Caribbean itinerary, in July or August.

I found 3:

Freedom, 8 day

Liberty,7 day

and

Victory,7 day

We will be taking our two teenage daughters.

Please I would appreciate any input. Which ship do you like better? Better for teens?

Do any of them have a seperate adult pool?

or a covered pool?

Any info I so would appreciate.

Freedom is the newest... the Liberty the second newest, and the Victory the oldest of the three.

 

I've cruised the Victory and thought she was a top rate ship.

 

I suppose I would tend toward the 8-day... only because I love cruising and one extra day would be great.

 

However, I tend to choose based on total price... this include airfare, hotel, taxi, cruise, and trip insurance.

 

If everything is equal... go for the 8-day cruise.

 

Best of luck. :)

OH... BTW... they all have adult pools... and the main Lido pools have covers that open and close, based on the weather.

 

The Adult pools can be an issue as the Security folks tend to not enforce the Adult only pool rules... but sometimes they do.

 

Again, best of luck. :)
