I have been on 15 Carnival cruises - have always enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and value. The CDC has the cruise industry running scared, as they can ruin their business with ANY arbitrary order they wish. It has now become necessary for Carnival to anticipate what the "next" thing form CDC will be and implement beforehand. So now smoking in the casino is too dangerous without any real data to indicate smoking is any more dangerous than drinking their drinks (which is a profit center for them) with masks off. I have had a cruise cancelled last September and have 3 booked for 2022. We will see if cruising is still fun under these lockdown conditions ...perhaps not. Too bad consenting adults cannot make decisions for themselves these days.
