What a tough position to be in! I am hoping those with reservations this weekend get a call and accommodated on other sailings... There are other sailings also from Miami. Maybe Carnival could offer these guests a coach transfer to/from Miami from the Orlando International Airport? I do wish all those waiting that they get a response as soon as possible, I know I would not be happy waiting by my phone/email for what is happening! Especially so soon. Good luck.

Hello Everyone: We just got off a 5 night Carnival Freedom Cruise, albeit we are not big Carnival cruisers we noticed a few cutbacks on food from our Carnival Magic Cruise back in September 2021. Some of these may have already happened on our Magic cruise and I did not notice. Are any of these a big issue in the grand scheme of things? Probably not, but thought I'd share my experiences. Buffet Mongolian Wok - only available for lunch No Chocolate Extravaganza on final sea day Limited options (around 5 mains, salad, a few sides and dessert station (dinner only 3 desserts)) Menu for dinner was the same as MDR - just not as many options Am I wrong in thinking there used to be multiple stations with different "themes?" - maybe this was cut a long while back? Main Dining Room About the same for both cruises Food was consistently decent - just stay clear of the striploin steak! Dinner was limited to MDR, Buffet, Pizza or Seafood Shack Sea Day Brunch No more fillet in the steak & eggs - striploin steak was full of fat/hard to chew Hours now end at 12pm - used to be 1:30pm So no main dining room lunch option Blue Iguana Limited hours - used to be similar hours to Guy's Burgers - ends at 2:30pm or 3:30pm No more tortilla bowls Guy's Burgers Fries no longer the same as before - noticed same fries throughout the ship with different seasonings Closes at 6pm - which is typical for both Afternoon Tea Was still served on our 5 night! We had two seas days and had two afternoon teas Room Service Price of pizza gone up from $5 to $6
