Jeff was ar the pool everyday in bikinis. The women kept track of the colors and each day was known by the. Monday pink..tuesday purple..etc.

Our disappointment on cruise was lack of nba playoffs in sports bar or so they call it. They have no nba package. Except for violins the music was eh.

We noticed them as well.  How could you not?  LOL  Thanks for the info--we were very curious.

Also was on this cruise.  One of the problems with the new elevator system is that there are no floor numbers listed on the outside above the door.  The elevator could be open and ready to go but you can't go on because you don't know where it is going.  You have to go a few feet away to register the floor number that  you want to go on.  When you finish, the elevator is already gone.  Happened several times.

 

The show entertainment is OK but not fantastic like it use to be.  The music is much too loud.  Actually not loud but LOUD!  Once in awhile, I like a slow gentile love song.  There is nothing like this in any of the shows.  All have the same theme.  Very loud with bright flashing lights beamed into the audience.  It is not the performers at fault.  They do well, but the directing is terrible.  It seemed like most of the shows had themes where the performers were upset about something but I did not know why.  Where is Bing Crosby when you need him?

 

Ship and crew were fantastic.  You could not ask for better service.  Food was, shall we say, OK.  Lots of repetition in the menus from one day to another.

 

Takes quite awhile to learn the ship since several places on the decks are blocked.  They need more Fore and Aft and Port or Starboard signs.  That would help

 

All and all, I enjoyed the cruise.  This was my 25th Carnival cruise.  I would say it was not my worst cruise nor my best but I am already booked for a January cruise so you know I like cruising.  The Horizon is a good ship to sail on.

Key on elevators: 1 find where you want to go press it for each member in your party 2 in some locations screens show which elevation is going to which floor. 3 inside elevaor there is a thin vertical strip showing elevator stops. Good luck.

What you say is true but remember that the floor indicator is in the inside of the elevator.  If you go inside the elevator to check the floors, every one in the elevator would have to make room for you so you could check the floors and then you would have to leave if not listed.  I don't think you would make many friends if there were several people in the elevator.

They do display which elevator will be yours.  Just have to watch for it after you input your floor and number of people.  We loved the elevators on the Horizon.  No more stopping on every floor because someone pushed all the buttons.

We had a great time and meet a few wonderful, entertaining people. 

I thought the whole ship was hot.... I dont know if the AC was not working or what. The Havana Bar area was extra hot at night.

We loved the Sunni Girls Trio!!!! The should be showcased more. I thought the Celestial Show was awesome, I would have been happy to just hear them play.

The food was hit and miss, but we still found something to eat.

It was a great cruise and I would happily do it again.

We sailed the Horizon back in July 2021 and we loved the Sunni Girls.  We are booked on the 3 July 2022 sailing and I've been wondering if they were still entertaining on the Ship.  I loved them so much that one night I shared some of my Casino winnings and tipped each one of the $50 each.

 

Make sure to check them out.  They play in the Lobby/Atrium and their sound and presence is Great!!!!!

The point is that you don’t check to see where an elevator is going and then get on. That defeats the whole purpose and creates chaos. You NEED to input where you want to go for each person and then it will tell you which car to take. Then just like magic you get on the elevator going where you want to go. I don’t understand why it is so difficult for people to comprehend.
