Reviewer read

A strong ship by most measures. It falls behind on disembarkation.

Carnival Breeze rates higher overall than 74% of the ships we track. Activities is its strongest showing. The weak spot is disembarkation.

The one caution

8.4out of 10 for disembarkation

Higher than only 23% of ships. The typical ship scores 8.80.

Everything else, in two lines

Eight are good without being remarkable: activities, entertainment, embarkation, cabins, value, service, dining and ship quality. They rate higher than 51% to 83% of ships.

Family sits in the middle of the fleet too, but only 40 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.

Three fall below the fleet: public areas (higher than only 47% of ships), fitness (higher than only 42% of ships) and disembarkation (higher than only 23% of ships).

Cabin grade barely matters here. The inside, oceanview, balcony and suite grades all score between 8.54 and 8.82. Pick on price and position, not on rating.
