Carn. Cruise, why bad opinion??

[tacha]

Why Does Carnival has such a bad reputation, that it's not up to R.C. or any other cruise line? But those who did Carnival Ship say the food is delicious... nothing to complaine.. So why is Carnival has such a reputation?
In August, going with adolescent, not worried but April 2009, on the new ship of Carnival, the SPLENDOR... starting to be worried!!! Will it be ready, service, quality of the cruise... new ship, new personnel?? No experience??

I wasn't aware Carnival had a bad reputation. It is disappointing that these things crop up on the internet and suddenly become "fact" when they are not true. In many ways, the other cruise lines don't measure up to Carnival's standards.

Carnival has a very high repeat passenger rate. They must be doing something right.

Carnival also is the only cruise line with a Vacation Guarantee.
