We sailed Allure on Sept 20-27.  Had a wonderful cruise with no problems with the shows.  There were 2400 passengers on board.  We enjoyed the newly formatted muster drill.  It's a 2 minute presentation with an employee showing how to put on life jacket....hoping they will keep that forever.  Mama Mia was amazing with many talented dancers.  All of the staff were very friendly and helpful,  I know they're glad to be back.  The food in the Windjammer was ok.  The dining room food was good, but not what we are used to on Royal Caribbean ships.  Another opinion is I think they've overpriced their drink packages.  This cruise was our first as Diamond therefore we took advantage of the 4 free drinks per day and then 1/2 price after that. 

We were in the casino every day on the cruise.  There was a passenger at our table that kept coughing and coughing and coughing.  I was discouraged that the pit boss did not ask him to leave.  Eventually all of us at that table left due to the fear that he might have Covid.

Please ask many any other questions, and I hope your cruise this week is enjoyable even though it sounds like most of the entertainment has been cancelled.

In reading some of the posts I understand that Carnival allows you take a bottle of wine when boarding. We usually sail with RCI and that's a NoNo! Just wanted to make sure we would not get it confiscated! Just trying to play by the rules :D

13 days left till we board the NOS! Can't come soon enough!:D:D:D
