Look closely into the Holiday before you decide to book. It is a very, very old ship and has been having a lot of complaints. Just a little heads up there.<BR>Toto

STAY CLEAR OF THE HOLIDAY. The ship is a floating disaster. A 3 year old in our family was almost electrocuted by a 220 volt socket hanging out of the wall. This is just one of at least fifteen other things that happened to us. The ship is old and ugly.

I will traveling on the Holiday this coming Sat, May 11th. I, myself, am only 20, but I will traveling w/ 10 couples ranging from 40-75. I have read both good and bad about the Holiday. I don't really have a problem w/ it being an older ship. I traveled on NCL's Norway 2 years ago and had heard terrible things about it, but I had a great time!

Carly, I am the world's most outspoken critic of short cruises. Never again. I've had 7 day cruises on different lines and always had a good time.<BR>Okay, Nanette- you have alcohol science down to an art, woman.A PH.D in ETOH, by golly. Enjoyed your review but had a hangover by the last line.

$1 million in 2000 fixing her up! Yeah, I can believe that. Do you know how hard it is these days to get purple, gold and pink shag carpeting?

Actually, Carnival spent alot of money on the Holiday this year. She was in dry dock and wet dock.<BR><BR>New carpeting, remodeled bathrooms, etc.<BR><BR>I hadn't noticed the purple shag, but probably would have said, "GROOVY!". <BR><BR>(It would take more than tacky carpeting to put a damper on one of my vacations...you make your own fun/create your own reality)!

Nanette - I do believe you could enjoy a cruise without the ship!
