Been on a few and it depnds on the ship and the ports. OVERALL a cruise is a great experience. Most have an ok spa type gym with some basic equipment and awesome jacuzzis, etc. You can eat, eat, eat and just kick back and party .
What ship and ports are you going to hit? Just curious. I would go to their web site , check out the actual ship you are going on.


It is starting in LBC then to PV, Cabo and mazatlan. I've already been to those mexicano cities so I'm not that jazzed. Would def want to hit the caribean instead.

Yes wolman. Photos of fat chicks, buffett and hot chicks iif they exist.

I'm going on a RC cruise in September.  It sure will be nice to see BP's stamp on everything.  I've never been on a cruise before, but from what I see it's mostly all inclusive food...but not drinks???  I see a wine, sods, juice, and water packages but nothing about beer???  wtf?? ???

You'll have a great time, RC now has the largest cruise ship in the world.. complete with indoor park/forest

it's called the Oasis and has something like 27 levels, lol..it's a fucking floating city..

Ya, I've seen that one, but unfortunately not going on that one.  All I know is the one I'm going on has been recently all renovated.  I just can't believe that booze isn't included...damn it!!

Did my first cruise in March on RC.  Just a short 3 night Bahamas cruise.  It was fun.  Good food, great service and drinks weren't crazy expensive.  after 4 days though, I was ready to get off the ship.   Going on the Oasis of the Seas in July for a week.  Should be great.  Just hope I don't go crazy being on a boat for a week.

After doing a couple of larger cruise ships, everyone should try a smaller line like the Windstar.  Once you experience those cruises and getting directly into ports that larger ships can't you will never go back to a mass hull floating city again.

I have always wanted to jump off one of these and have Bruce Willis and a hot girl rescue me of course Bruce can drive while we enjoy hanging out in the back of the boat.

This thing is like twice the size of all the other ships around, I can't honestly even imagine how big it is...

I really didn't feel too stuffed on any of my cruises (3) yes you ran into the same people sometimes (esp. at dinner or breakfast) but overall there was so much room and so much to do and see it didn't really seem to be an issue. Also considering you were docked at a different island pretty much every day (morning to evening) meant you could go and explore the island or swim on the beach and not be stuck on the ship. Most of the ships sail overnight and they all have stabilizers built in so you don't rock like you do on a small boat. These things are literally floating cities, each one has an average of 15-20 restaurants/eating spots and 10-20 stores on board, many have golf, ice skating, rock climbing, etc. as well so for those who think you'd be bored out of your mind after a day or two, you're crazy.

Carnival is at the bottom of the barrel along with Norwegian cruise lines.

I've actually never been on cruise, but everyone I talk to that has, thought it sucked.  I much prefer private resorts in secluded areas, away from all the riff raff.

Forgive me if I offend, but most run of the mill cruises appeal to Trailer Trash Honeymooners whose only wish is to dock in front of a Golden Corral after their Disney themed "Tropical" boat ride comes to melancholy end.  :-\

Normally I'd agree, but apparently there are cuisine oriented cruises for foodies which you might enjoy.  The report I got is that the chefs did not disappoint.

I leave in 10 days for my cruise and I am totally looking forward to it. I was not dissapointed last time we went and I'm sure I wont be this time. The folks on the cruise were for the most part middle class america of all races. There was a great mix of folks and from what I seen everyone was having a blast. The entertainment was good, the food was good, and the whole cruise was more then worth the money we spent on it.

Everyone keeps knocking Carnival do you guys know Carnival owns 50% of the market share on cruise lines? Royal Carribean is 2nd with 30% Norweigan is 3rd with 10% and it filters down from there. So for all you knocking Carnival apparently some folks like them, if its trashy middle class america well fuck call me Trashy cause I'm looking forward to having a great time with a bunch of trashy lowlife ghetto ass trailer trash honeymooners who really dont give a fuck what us Getbiggers think about them :)

Bring on the boat, bring on the food, bring on the bloat, bring on the hr on the treadmill/elip every morning to burn it off while I'm on the boat. I'm gonna have afucking blast and come back and tell you guys all about it :)

Not dissing it bro but compared to RC the quality is just not there, and that is reflected in the price! it's like comparing Kia to Mercedez, sure they both have engines and drive but one is ultimately a premium brand while the other is entry level.

No hate.

Have a good trip :)

give us details and pics.

Oh I agree on that, was just pointing out how some people were totally dissing Carnival and the folks on the boat.
 RC's big ship looks cool as hell and they got a kick ass HUGE zip line across the top where you are like 75 feet up in the air. Were gonna do this every other year so maybe next time I will shell out more bones for a RC and compare them.
