Do you think a smaller ship with 2000 people is less crowded than a larger ship with 6000 people? I'm not thinking a few thousand tons more can entertain and feed 4000 more people comfortably. Am I confused?
I am not sure if you're confused but I'm not sure what you're trying to say. As far as the guest to space ratio, this is the best ship in the fleet. Thanks for watching.
My first cruise employees are so friendly and helpful had a wonderful time. And there is a Guys burger .Savannah director is awesome. Great shows. The last day I received choclate covered strawberry s from a crew member due to braking my ankle the night before getting on the ship .Which brought tears to my eyes .She made me feel so special. Anya thank you again .John Paul Stateroom attendant always smiling and remembers everyone's name made me feel so welcome all and all .I had the best time of my life.
I been on this cruise ship 3 times from Long Beach to Hawaii back to Long Beach with a stop off in Mexico a 15 day cruise the ship has a very colorful interior and plenty to do..... Carnival has a nice fleet of cruise ships.... And you did a fantastic tour of the ship....
Came here after an article on cruise radio about the author is excited to see this ship again more than any other due to the theming and I think they're right!
I’m from Melbourne Australia. We had the Carnival Spirit sailing year round from Sydney until last year when the Carnival Splendor was reposted there. We also used to get the Carnival Legend sailing from Sydney and Melbourne in our summer months until March 2019 when she was called back the US. When cruising is permitted to sail again we get the Spirit from Brisbane all year round and Splendor from Sydney all year round. I’ve had the pleasure of sailing in the legend for 2 cruises and I’ve sailed 2 cruises back to back on the Spirit in January/February 2020. I love the spirit class ships. So easy to navigate, never feels crowded and just a great size ship that’s not too small and not too big either. They are what I call elegant ladies of the sea.....
I loved this cruise, I went with my friends from HS in August. Loved the Frankenstein club, loved the delicious pizza ( 24HRs ) the amazing party’s at night, the great gym, the amazing staff at the bar! Will be going on it again soon!
Dude ! I know it’s an older ship and this is an older video... but you did a great job of educating me about this ship. I subscribed because you’re pretty good at this.
I went on this ship on a 10 day Alaska cruise in May of 2022. Enjoyed the whole trip and have many memorable times at all the ports we stopped at. If I could I would do it all again!!!
Little late to the party… but the gatsby’s garden hallway wraps around on three and you can enter right beside each phantom entrance. It’s got places to sit and also the windows are big enough to sit and read/relax in. It was my favorite place to leave the crowd at while i was aboard.
Thanks for the video. Brings back our memories.This was our first cruise . I think 2014. and we went to Alaska towards the end of the season. Miracle was a fun ship to be on with all the unique architecture. It didn’t feel crowded because of all the hidey holes . We would get our coffee in the morning and sit in Gatsbys Garden. Rarely would we see anyone else there. Nice ship.
My first cruise was on this ship. I had a wonderful time. The food was delicious .I like the deli those cornbeef and pastrami sandwiches were so good. Also room service had these shrimp sanwiches and those brownies .Yes it was my favorite cruise. Way better than Royal Caribbean.Looking forward to the new ship thats coming out 2020. I'll try to book that one next. I really had fun on the funship.
I’ve never been on the Miracle & your tour of the ship was great. It allowed me to get an idea of the ship layout. I’ve heard that they have added a Guys Burger & some other venues. Thanks again for an excellent tour of the Miracle. The best that I have seen.
@@CruiseRadio Most definitely! Thank you for all the content! I’m actually booking Miracle for March 15th next year for my wife’s birthday. She can’t go on Spirit like I did since she’s in Australia but her sister ship will do!!
The only two ships I've sailed on were the MV Explorer and the MV Odyssey and this video made me really excited. My sister sent me here because we might go on it for my mom's 50th! Quality work! Liked and subscribed!
Hey Doug I just found this video this ship has a funky, cool theme to it it looks like it would be a total blast to sail on and it’s another ship that’s homeported on the west coast which is totally awesome The theme meaning of the ship at school from Alice in wonderland, to the Wizard of Oz, to Frankenstein‘s lab wow this ship will be even better with a guys burgers and blue iguana let’s hope they get that in the next upgrade. Thanks for the video, hey Doug “Are you afraid of the carnival miracle night club” 👻
I love the Carnival Spirit class ships. I have been on both the Pride and the Spirit. The ships are the perfect size, not too big and not too small. Even at capacity, the ship never felt crowded. There was always somewhere you could go that would make it feel completely private.
Cruised on this ship Oct. 2017 to Hawaii. Love it! Lots of happy memories and planning to make that trip again. I think Splendor is now doing the cruise from Long Beach to all the islands.
Cruise Radio We signed up for the Pearl Harbor excursion but the winds were too high that day to go out to the memorial. We also did a submarine excursion in Kona and that was really enjoyable! Other than that we rented a car and did our own exploring. I recommend this cruise for those who love sea days. I loved the Garden for quiet reading, the mad hatters lounge was great for comedy. There was a lot of standing since it is a smaller room. Over all loved everything about the ship. Did miss Guys but believe me we didn’t starve!
Cruise on her in 6 weeks and love this class of ships! Wish they did the full upgrade, but that's ok, we are getting the Carnival Legend back in Tampa in October and look forward to sailing on her soon too!!
I'm a fan of the Spirit class having been on both Spirit and Legend at least twice each. It's a shame Sydney's lost Spirit and we won't see Legend again. Sydney now has Splendor for which I'm still trying to get on but I've had 4 cruises cancelled. The Spirit class ship has an awesome layout. I haven't been on other Carnival class of ship but watching these Cruise Radio tours, you can see other ships have areas that are neglected by Carnival. I think the Spirit class is a good match in terms of space and passenger numbers.
A day late and a dollar short to see this gem. Sure wish that Carnival would send this ship to sail out of Galveston. I would definitely book a cruise or two on her. We like the smaller ships, and this is just our size. Thanks for the video. I sure hope that the refurb added a Guy's, but didn't mess with the ambience.
I’ll be on this ship next summer for a trip from San Francisco to San Diego to Ensenada. Been on the imagination in 2019 which was fun. This time I bought the cheers pass so I don’t have to worry about extra drink charges during my stay.
The Carnival Miracle's next dry-dock is scheduled for 2/14/20 - 3/04/20, according to GoCCL. The ship is currently scheduled to receive features such as Guy's Burger Joint, Blue Iguana Cantina, Carnival's WaterWorks, Red Frog Rum Bar, and the Blue Iguana Cantina Bar.Dec 13, 2019
That secret corridor is on the same deck as the bottom of that one floor stairway. Follow the walkway to just before you get to the entrance to the theatre and it is immediately to your right. You have to look for it as it does not stand out. I found it on the Pride and used it to sit and read and hardly anyone walked thru while I was there. It really is an awesomely quiet place. Don H Ocala FL (Will be on the Mo
Gatsby's Garden was one of my favorite areas on the Miracle and I managed to find it before we left Tampa! You can really only see it if you stand in between the entrances to the theatre and the sliding doors to the boat deck. It was the only way to get to the arcade and I had to lead several people down it to show them where the arcade was.
I loved Gatsby's Garden! The murals on the walls were amazing, the views of the ocean from the built- in seats along the pathway were a good reason to stop for a little while, and the whole ambiance felt upscale and personal----like a secret garden in a great estate.
my first ship, my first love, since then Ive sailed on the Paradise, the Sensation. was supposed to sail on the panorama, but covid hit, and Im scheduled to sail on the Freedom in October, hopefully by then everything will be calmed down.
I went a couple years ago and there was like a kids club I went to that was in the Frankenstein labs and we did a scavenger hunt and ended up walking around pretty much the entire ship
Love the Spirit class ships. We will be doing a b2b on the Miracle (our 3rd & 4th - trips on her) in Jan/Feb 2020. Our 14th & 15th cruises overall. Will muss the Blue Iguana . Thanks for the review.
Not sure if anybody is going to see this. But I'm going to say it anyway. carnival miracle is one of the best cruises anyone could ever go on. I made a lot of friends on there and it was the best experience of the year. The party was trying to look for is called Gatsby garden. It was near the entrance of circle c. Circle c is a club for kids ages. I think 10 to 14.Club 02 is a club for kids ages. 15 to 17. I was in that club. I made a lot of friends. And even got really close to some. if you were thinking about going on. Carnaval miracle comma I very much so recommend it
@@amylee5806 We loved the ports. The ship could use the 2.0 upgrades but the staff was awesome. We always found good food and plenty to do. We would do it again. Stay towards the middle or front of the ship. The back has vibrations. We recommended it to some friends who are going in August.
just found out that our August cruise to Alaska is looking promising and it's scheduled to be on the Miracle. We originally booked it for last June on the Spirit but of course we all know how that went. so we rebooked for this summer and they told us it would be on Freedom. I'm glad it's not tho since we were just on Freedom in Oct '19. I'll be happy to be on a 'new to us' ship.
Did the Mexican Riviera cruise out of Long Beach on the Miracle. I enjoyed the cruise, but she was a little tired....just needed some updates and a dry dock.

Cruise Radio not my first cruise. My second 😆 Went on the Inspiration last year around Halloween. Loved the 4 day cruise so I wanted to try a 7 day. Perfect way to spend my 60th Birthday 😊🛳🎂
Was carnival miracle last spirit class ship to get waterworks the green thunder and the twister repainted to yellow and changing the blue depth to red.
Really thought I saw myself in the dining room with the purple grapes on the ceiling cause I went on the miracle in May 2019. I really thought it was myself because there was one guy at one of the tables that looked just like my dad and I was like that kind of looks like me to. but it wasn’t
Carnival seems to finally be getting away from the 90s Las Vegas cheesy themed thing with the newer class ships coming online. RC and NC seems to have more earth tones as do the new class of CCL
If I may ask, is there any deck you can go all the way to the front that isn't in the Serenity or spa area. Specifically many decks on Vista and freedom (Vista deck 10 was my favorite) had an exit to the external deck that almost no one knew about or used. It was a windy but peaceful place to sit especially at night if you didn't want to have a crowd.
This looks extremely dated. This ship needs a huge makeover. Frankenstein, Alice in wonderland and all this metal and mirrors just look like an old Vegas casino and not modern at all. A ton of walking through narrow hallways and not really doing much but waiting till you get to your destination and that's the thing you don't want your guest to feel like.
I think this, like most ships, offers plenty of open spaces. Some passageways may feel a little small and/or can get crowded, but there's always plenty of open spaces to enjoy (both inside and out). Tip: Cruise ship cabins can be small if you're used to hotel rooms. Get a balcony room (if budget allows) or save a ton of money and get an "obstructed view interior" (cabin class "4K") which still feels more open with the big french doors that let in a lot of light and fresh air. You'll enjoy!
@@CruiseRadio Hi Doug I am Andrew you interviewed me on MSC Bellisima. I have mainly sailed with Norwegian . Doing my first Alaska cruise in September on Norwegian Jewel.
