Carnival Jubilee: We Finally Said YES to Carnival — Here's Why We Changed Our Minds After 35 cruises on 7 different cruise lines, we completely avoided Carnival — until now. Carnival's newest and biggest ship, the Carnival Jubilee, is sailing a 7-night Western Caribbean cruise out of Galveston, Texas, and we're finally giving them another chance. Here's exactly what changed our minds — and what we're most nervous about. Our Carnival Jubilee Itinerary We're stopping at three of our favorite Western Caribbean ports: Cozumel, Roatan, and Costa Maya. Yes, this is our 8th Western Caribbean cruise — but there's always something new to discover, and we'll have fresh cruise tips for every port in the full series. What We're Evaluating Onboard: 🍔 Guy's Burger Joint — worth the hype? 🍗 Shaq's Big Chicken — brand new since our last Carnival sailing 🌮 Blue Iguana Cantina 🏊 Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™ — we love a good adult pool area 📋 Organization & embarkation — this is our biggest concern, and we're not sugarcoating it How Does Carnival Jubilee Stack Up? We've recently sailed on NCL Luna (NCL's newest ship) and the MSC Seashore — both out of Galveston. After this cruise, we'll be doing a full ship comparison so you can decide which cruise line is right for your next vacation.
