Thanks so much! That means a lot!! ❤️

Cruise tip for "reserved" deck chairs: If the people aren't there for apx 30 mins, take the chairs. And move their gear somewhere away from the chairs where you can see it to keep it safe. If they come back and say you took their chairs, tell them you "got it from that nice couple 10 minutes ago, I think they were Trey and Alicia. They told us to watch your stuff." Or make up other names. Or use my name.

LOVE your channel!!! We have been on several Carnival cruises and a couple of Royal Carribean, and by far the best is Carnival. We have a cruise booked for August 2025 on the Jubilee and after watching your videos, can't wait!!!!!

Hello! I've been watching your channel for many years and I thought I'd finally comment to simply let you know that you guys are awesome! Thank you for the content that you provide on your channel! Kudos! :)

The salad option on Serenity Deck is the BOMB! So are the Huevos Rancheros. The pho bowls rule. AND the Mongolian Wok. 👍

My husband and I sail on the Jubilee in 5 days! So excited!!!

Thank you for a thorough review and walk through of different favorite things on the ship! I just booked for Jubilee in a few months and cannot wait! This will be our first cruise as a family and my first in a lot of years. Your videos have been so helpful! Your videos are so thorough and valuable! You guys do a fantastic job sharing your experience and are so relatable. Can't wait to experience the Jubilee soon!

I just got off of the Jubilee this past Saturday. I will never go on this ship again. The food throughout the ship was mediocre at best. The balcony room I had needed to be at least a foot or two wider. Everything in the room felt cramped. The TV was to big for the room and didn't move so you could only watch it from the bed. The deck was so shallow that it was hard to arrange the two chairs and the table in a manner so that two people could be comfortable. I do agree with the review on the Serenity deck on 18. It was very nice not having a little kids around, it's 21 and older to go up there. And there were a ton of kids all over. I was surprised how many other people on the ship felt the same way. It was a common source of conversation no matter where you went. And to tell you the truth, I was surprised at how bad it was considering I had two friends take it a month ago and loved almost everything. Please watch several different reviews before booking a cruise on this ship.

Kendall Fire sure does know how to hype up a crowd and cruise!! She was on the Mardi Gras this past summer and was awesome. And yes, we loved the Serenity area and spent most of our sea days there...the salad drink bars were great. Glad to see a lot of what worked on the Mardi Gras transferred over. I'm loving the theming on this new ship and would't mind sailing on it. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent review, always enjoy yalls content. Thank you!! 😊

SUPER BUMMED I booked my Jubilee cruise through a TA for the first time, before I found out you’re a TA now 😢 Next year’s for sure!! My TA is great, but I just love you guys, your content is super valuable, informative, honest, detailed, and entertaining ❤ I binge all of your videos during my precruise planning lol. Thanks for this video!! Excited for the Jubilee in August!

🎉😮 awesome! Always a good time watching you guys!

We are booked on the Jubilee in 2025!! Can't wait!!

Thank you for sharing this with me. I loved it.

The shrimp at the seafood shack has been spot on. My husband has gotten them on the Mardi Gras and the celebration

Yay! I’ve been waiting on y’all’s review!!

Chef's Table on the XL Class Carnival Ships is incredible. Comparable to a much more premium experience such as Regent, Oceana, or Azamara! It's fantastic!

I was worried Guys wasn’t there….whew. Best burger ever.

Thank you so much for all of your reviews I can't wait getting on the Jubilee in 2 weeks

We were on the Inaugural just like you spent a lot of time on deck 8 outdoors. Everything was right there the food the hot tubs and the Ice cream Truck. Loved it.

Awesome content. We are going on jubilee in September. Thanks

Never thought I would want to go on Carnival but you definitely sold it to me!

Can't wait! April 13th for me!! Thank you for this vlog!

Almost 6,000 passengers????? I can't even imagine. I can imagine it getting a lil cramped with that many people. If ya'll didn't feel that cramped, then the cruise was well organized. Awesome video! Ya'll are Great! ! !

I was on the Celebration September 2023. Loved it!!

I’ve been going back and forth for months on if I should book a cruise for myself and my two kiddos (5/12). Your channel has given me the information/tips and tricks on cruising and I booked the trip. 😊 January 2025 on the jubilee!! Thank you!!

Can’t wait to see the ship in person in March. Love y’all’s content! Hello from Monroe, LA 😎

We just got off the ship last week. We loved the ship. May be our favorite.

The Smores Parfait on Carnival is the best dessert I have ever had. Outstanding.

Sailing on the Jubilee in June!! I too look forward to the ice cream 😊

Great video ❤❤❤❤

Awesome 😎 video EECC

We sailed on the Jubilee the sailing after you where on. Both my husband and I LOVED this ship. Biggest thing was there was less noise than any other carnival ship we had been on. Also Kendall was amazing. Our favorite area was also the Heroes lounge area. And like you Alisa I need to be in the shade and there were plenty of places to go.

Ma'am nothing is better then the melting cake lol

Awesome vlog. We have been on mardi gras and celebration. Booked on the jubilee in September .

I live in Louisiana also and I'm going on the Jubilee for Thanksgiving this year. Really looking forward to it. I really enjoy your vlogs.

The last cruise we took and October I noticed the food was A LOT better. Specifically the desert. The cakes (in the MDR) were always terrible but this time they were awesome.

Great video! Very informative. I'm going on the Jubilee in Feb 2025. Hopefully everything is still relatively new when we get on board lol

What a wonderful review!! We would love to go on this ship but in our 80’s too much walking. We were on the Magic in September and noticed the food was very good compared to some of our other cruises. Sometimes I think it depends on the ship.❤️

Great review! Sailing in March….

Going out on her March 2nd, Can't wait.

Embarkation day crazy buffet crowds ruined the Disney cruise for us. We couldn’t find a seat and the kids were cranky from traveling. It offput my husband who was then in a bad mood the whole time. Where can you suggest to eat on embarkation day for lunch?

Rootbeer + Soft serve = Root beer float on a cruise!

I miss watching your ship tours. You were my first cruise video. That was back when the twins were still young teens. I think it was out of New Orleans. I need to try Huevos Rancheros. I never had that on Carnival.

the BEST thing to do is get the tenders nashville hot style!! they’ll do it if you ask

Definitely give seafood shack another try. We love it and usually hit them up at night shortly before they close. Try the Lobster rolls and crab legs.

Going on jubilee june 01..looking forward to it!!

I think the pizza delivery is what slowed down service on my last cruise. All the pizza that came out of the oven were going to delivery.

Great job with this video. I only have one complaint. You forgot your Homey Emeril's Bistro and you even stood in it. On behalf of Emeril, BAM!

The 1 thing that I can't stand on all 3 XL ships is the Center Stage, my family and I was on the Celebration last year and the Center Stage is just to small for everything that they got going on, people don't leave after the shows, they will sit for the next 1, they need to find a better solution for that area.

Rickey Martin is still around, he pretty much stays and performs in Puerto Rico I've heard.

We're not interested in the mega ships, but always love your reviews!

We love the mdr

Sailing in August!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

I get the juevos rancheros every morning almost. Go get some bacon and hashbrowns from the buffet and the juevos. So good.

really miss your rv trips.

I hear so much good stuff about burgers onboard ships. I wish NCL would serve a decent one lol. Every cruise I have tried at least 2, and every cruise I could not eat them. When we were on the Joy, there wasnt enough staff to open the Diner. 🙄 I heard burgers were edible there but, alas they were closed all 7 days of our cruise. We are boarding the Jade on Feb. 7th. I think while we are in Tampa for 2 days, I will gobble burgers! I know I cant eat the ones from O' Sheehans l, the lido deck, or the buffet! 😂😂😂😂

Deck 17 has a elevator that goes to the spa.

Hello so glad you guys enjoyed your cruise. We will be on it February 24 2024. We have been on the celebration and loved it. So glad this ship is closer to home. We are in okc. Did you guys try emeril's? We really enjoyed it on the celebration.

FYI, the new Cowboys stadium in Dallas cost apx $1.3 billion (well, 2009). Use a billion on something to make money 30 times a year, or 365 days a year?

What are the rules on drinking package while in port? I just got off Princess and they said they we had to pay full charge and taxes until they got into intl waters even with the drink packages. RCL allows drinking but the alcohol has to be made in TX.

@EECCTravels

5 ай бұрын

No drink packages are available the day you sail from TX so it starts on the second day. All beverages have to be individually paid for on embarkation day.

Since the cruise restart we have been loyal to Royal. All the negative press surrounding Carnival has scared us a bit, as we have an impressionable teenage daughter. However, after watching this video, I have to admit I am intrigued about this ship. Never sailed from Galveston before. Two questions: 1. Harmony of the Seas or Carnival Jubilee?? 2. Hotel recommendation for Galveston pre/post cruise?

Love your videos , I’m so torn between carnival jubilee and harmony of the seas same price same itinerary and my husband and I will be traveling with two boys ages 12 and 15 looking for more of a family friendly cruise the boys will not go to any of the teen clubs as they are a bit shy could you give any suggestions ?

I'm going on both of those ships this year! I recommend have your kids do the meet and greet on the first night, and tell them no commitments required, just check it out(because everytime can be different) and you might be surprised when they make friends for life and have the best time. However, I think there is still plenty of fun to be had on both ships without the clubs too 😊

I am sailing on March 30th

How are they for vegetarians and how is that quality in comparison to what you had?

I like Big Chicken but prefer Guys Fries to BC fries, I don't like the texture and how "mushed" they are. I like a "heartier" fry. Tip if you hear others say the same thing. Jog in the early morning or treadmill in the gym for sure. Not that we jog lol. We noticed a BIG change on our Sept food when we did a Journey cruise. We were REALLY impressed. Totally agree they've made that change. I think that is due to Emeril being in charge of the food. That's just my personal thought.

They have videos that talk about this. Search KZread videos. It also tells you on the cruise website when you're booking, however, that can be misleading, if you're new to this. Cruise companies make most of their $, once you're on board, in most cases. Few, are truly all inclusive.

@EECCTravels

That is tough as there are so many different variables so it’s near impossible to say definitively what a cruise will cost.

Man, you really make me wanna go on that ship! I’m glad you had a great time and like Jason I love my ice cream. Thanks a lot.🥰🛳️🦩⚓️👍🏼❤️

So one thing I'm very angry about personally they got rid of poker tables on all carnival cruises, Poker texas holdem is the most played game aside from slots in the world, and their craps tables went from 10 to 15.00 minimum. So frustrating.

I agree with leaving your stuff on chair not coming back those are my opinion no manners why you got to be that way people!!

This ship is just WAY too big. If I want Disney, I'll go to Disney World. I go on a cruise to relax, not to stay in perputual motion trying to do everything I can. Im going on the Elation in 6 days. It has plenty of bars, plenty of food, plenty of things to do, and I dont have to walk a country mile. What could be better?

Did you go to the gym?

My clients no longer want to go on Carnival even though they have a high loyalty status. They are tired of the obnoxious and loud individuals, the fights onboard, the hugging chairs and passengers with no etiquette or respect towards other cruisers. ❤

too large t....so bad for the environment ....too...big for ports of call....Im from Montana its passenger capacity is more than all but a few towns....on around a thousand feet..... no ....i really enjoy your channel but would like to see smaller ships in a more sustainable form of vacationing....how about the french polynesian freighter cruise .....exploration ships....sailing cruising small ships in turkey......the adriatic.....rail travel....ferries...take the ferry from denmark to iceland via the faroes ...which i have done in winter.... .so many options....not negative...your joy in travel is charming
