Carnival Conquest

Pros: Beautiful Ship, Great Service, Huge Rooms, Entertainment, Food Ect.
Cons: Jamaica is a little of a let down

Let me start by saying the Conquest is an absolutely beautiful ship. It's brand new and the flamboyant taste of the Carnival decorating team has been tempered during the years. I traveled on the Sensation last year and the decor looked a bit like Las...

Pros: The Ship, Children's activities, Overall Service.
Cons: None

We just returned from an outstanding vacation aboard the MS Carnival Conquest. I booked this trip back in July as an anniversary gift for my wife. We traveled with our almost three year old daughter. This ship maintains a Western itinerary that ...

Pros: Excellent service, great bang for your buck
Cons: Too many smokers, hard sell on extras

Pros: Big ship. Variety of food.
Cons: Could use a little more planned activites for days at sea.

I will try to be brief but there is so much I want to say about the ship. We got to the terminal around ll:30. Once my husband got finished parking the car at the Hilton (good parking rate), we were on the ship within 45 minutes. We went up to ...

Pros: Beautiful ship. Home port New Orleans! Lots of fun.
Cons: Parking in New Orleans. Loading zone was chaos after debarking while trying to leave.

This was my second cruise and my first inaugural cruise. This was the Conquest's Maiden Voyage on November 15, 2002, a 4 day cruise from New Orleans to Cozumel, and back.

Embarkation was quick and organized. Went very smoothly. We parked...

Pros: Great value, entertainment, good, and decor.
Cons: Embarkaton at Gulfport... will be much smoother when ship returns to New Orleans.

Pros: Ship Is Beautiful And Kept Clean, Friendly Staff
Cons: Soda fountain cards users made to feel like second class citizens, Montego Bay was awful

My husband arranged this cruise for our 7th Anniversary. We have sailed on Carnival ships in the past and are going on our next cruise with Carnival in March of 2004. So we hope our review is helpful to those planning their first, or next, cruise:) ...

Pros: Food, service, fun, relaxation... all without leaving the comfort of the ship! Fair value.
Cons: Prices of some amenities, lines at times for some events are loooong.

This review will focus more on the ship, crew and amenities than on my personal vacation experience. The Conquest is one of Carnival's largest cruise ships with a capacity of more than 3,000 guests plus over 1,000 crew members. When we sailed on ...

Pros: Balcony, Food
Cons: Camp Carnival, Unaccommodating Staff, Sleeping Arrangements

We wanted to go on a cruise with my parents, siblings and their spouses. Our two year old twins joined us for the week. We had three balcony cabins and two interior cabins. My husband, the 2 year old boys and I stayed in a balcony cabin on deck 6. ...

Pros: Smooth ride. Excellent engineering and systems. Decent food. Some friendly people. Fun shows. Photographers.
Cons: Crowds. Odors. Poor ventilation. Deck six cabins above disco and karaoke. Tiring.

We sailed the first week in August 2005. Conquest is bigger but it is much more crowded than the Inspiration it replaced. It is usually difficult to get around in the public areas and there are lines everywhere for everything. The contract crews seldom ...

Pros: Great food, lots of activities.
Cons: Pricey photographs. Topless deck needs to be away from kids.

My family and I just came back from a seven day cruise on the Conquest. I am 36, my husband is 44 and my daughter is 14. This was our fourth cruise and we were not disappointed. The ship left Galveston and had ports in Jamaica, Grand Cayman and ...

Pros: The room steward, the Waiters The fun
Cons: The embarkation and debarkation $47.00 soft drink card

This was our best cruise in 4 cruises we have taken. The ship was very luxurious and we had such a fun time. The staff was great and a good time had by all. We spent 2 days in Houston before and drove to Galveston Sunday about noon. The ship had a delay ...

Pros: Great food, great service, Cozumel, fantastic children's activities, good youth staff.
Cons: None, other than Jamaica.

This was the first time I had ever been on a cruise. It was given to us by a friend whose family members had backed out at the last minute. With only one week to prepare, I was frantic. Fortunately, I got myself and my two children (ages 11 and 6) ...

Pros: beautiful new ship, mostly 30's crowd, FUN!
Cons: smoky in places, crowded sun decks, Jamaica

In February 2002, I went with Discount Travel (www.singlescruise.com), based out of Florida, on a Mardi Gras cruise on the Conquest. I went solo, and had the time of my life and met many wonderful friends. The travel agent did a permission-based e-mail ...
