My Noise Complaint With Carnival (Liberty)

I think so. I've never cruised on Carnival, but the lines I like to cruise with are ready and willing to do whatever will make When I sailed on Celebrity Galaxy a few years ago, there was a problem with noise either above or below my cabin (never could figure out where) with what seemed to be large doors opening or closing at late/early hours (the theory was that it was food storage areas). There were posts on Cruise Critic complaining about this, but it was too late to change our cabin. Celebrity never acknowledged it and the CD refused to let me ask the captain a question about it during the Q&A session. I did get a galley tour on that cruise (which I had been requesting but had not been scheduled), I am not sure if it was related to my not being allowed to ask the question. I do know that the CD said that someone would contact me to discuss the problem and no one did. Bill |

The waiters would take a list one of the evenings. -- Charles |

They weren't on this cruise, and as you know it is typically reserved for those in the non basic tier of Captains Club (they get an invitation in their cabins). My family did eventually get a private tour with the executive chef. As I said, it is not clear if it was because I had tried to complain about our cabin or not. Bill |

Was not sure how many years ago you meant by a few years. Now a days those kind of tours have become perks in the loyalty programs. Years ago there were multiple ways to get them. The pursers desk, ask the waiter or matre d, the Captains Club hostess. From your description, a private tour with the executive chef, that is something special, that is not the usual galley tour, it sounds like it was in response to your complaints. -- Charles |

The problem with noise is bad, especially on the deck below Lido or pool
deck or the buffet. Isn't it wierd that this noisy deck is also the most expensive? Gadget |

Gadget Royal Caribbean ships don't have "Lido" deck. I always check the deck plans to make sure there are only cabins above and below me. The reason some of those cabins below the public area upper decks are more expensive is that the majority of cruisers believe that higher is better. Those of us who cruise a lot know this is not true. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |

Janet & Peter
Those of us who cruise a lot know that the suites are usually on the higher decks. Royal Caribbean and all cruise ships have a pool deck and a buffet restaurant with cabins and suites below. The problem with late night and early morning furniture draging is the crew cleaning up. This problem would be nearly eliminated with two pool boys picking up a piece of furniture instead of one dragging it. The other source of noise is the hard wheels on the carts that go back and forth during the long cleaning hours. Soft inflatable tires would be far less noisy on the floors and the cabins below. The most expensive real estate on any ship is the highest passenger deck, the cruise line should do all possible to protect that valuable profit center by limiting any noise producing activities during sleep times by crew or other passengers. I'm going on my "pinnacle" cruise with Royal Caribbean this week end in a suite under the whirlpool. If this one is noisy, I won't hesitate to call security. Gadget |

I will never understand why these cruise companies build the most expensive cabins below or above the busiest places on the ship. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count.
