I am that guy that does watch the jewelry presentations and the port tv shows 😂. It started out as a joke many cruises ago and now I actually kind of miss it when I’m home
I’ll be on the Carnival Radiance in mid-June (my first cruise). I appreciate your videos detailing the pros & cons. Fortunately, the middle of June is kind of a dead period for sports (so I won’t miss much). Love your channels.
Back a few years ago on Carnival Glory they only had ESPN Deportes that showed soccer all day. I wanted baseball! On Carnival ship another time they showed Florida vs Alabama SEC championship game on pool big screen. That was awesome! We don't eat at the buffets much so no big deal there.
I dont think there's less elevators on newer cruises, its just newer cruises are bigger and have a larger population capacity. This is a 2500 capacity ship. I was on a 6000 passenger ship and elevators were always slightly gridlocked
Just went on this ship for the 3rd time, got back last week. The entertainment goes on until 1am! Just depends on what you enjoy to do. So much to do right once you get off the ship too. If you are not one who wants to wonder. Still can't find the 21 and older lounge pool area. Did you both find it? My husbands first thought in the smoking section was all the smoke goes to the kids playing miniature golf right above us. All the outdoor play is right above the biggest smoking section.
I went on the Radiance a few weeks ago with minimal expectations. Price was low, am I right? I actually really liked it; but that being said, I wouldn’t choose it again with my kids. We were doing a girls trip so it was perfect for that. It was very much a party cruise and there was NO quiet place on the ship. Even Serenity had loud music playing. I would take this cruise again with my husband but I wouldn’t bring my kids. I don’t think they would have liked it anyway. The room was pretty small in my opinion; the beds were separated on our trip and there wasn’t room for any kind of nightstand in between (I used my suitcase stuffed in between the wall and my bed and it worked ok). I agree there were a lot of public spaces but yeah it was loud no matter where I went anytime after 12pm. Totally agree on the ease of catching an elevator and getting on/off the ship. We had a spa balcony and I was a little disappointed with how small the spa was. I was glad to be on the 10th floor though.
Last weekend while aboard, I couldn't watch the NBA playoffs on TNT bcuz Hero's only has ESPN....The channels in the room SUCKS as well. I had fun nonetheless but I didn't like that in particular
@@BigCheefaDaOG understandable bro. They should definitely take into consideration that certain times of year sport fans are going to want their fix even out in the ocean lol
Informative information I haven't heard anywhere else
Thank you
Glad it was helpful!

Going on the Radiance for my birthday in August and I'm so excited to visit California and Mexico for the first time. Thank you for your advice!
Have a great cruise!

When they show the games on the pool screen it is the best!

Yes, probably just less elevators per person

Bummer about the lack of Sports on TV, but otherwise it sounds like a blast! Can't wait. There's a sports bar though?
Yes there is

The cabin crew will push your beds together if you ask.
For your kids I would recommend Panorama
What kind of nightly family entertainment do they offer?
Is there a sports bar with games showing? Going in a week and I want to be able to keep up with the playoffs
Heroes sports bar shows games on ESPN only. I was aboard last weekend & I missed the NBA playoffs on TNT
july 17th cruise on the radiance so this will be good info for me
Have a great cruise!
so what about in the Heroes bar? Do they have the NFL games on in there?
Can you hook up your phone to stream on the tv using an hdmi cable?
Doing 14 day to Hawaii in balcony on deck 7 in middle
Have you ever stayed in 9201 scenic ocean view?
The only way to catch sports is at the hero’s sports bar.
