    Boy! I wish these ships were still around. The old style cruising was so much better than the modern cruises. I sailed on the Holiday in 1988.

    I worked on this ship in Sept 1988, met my son's father Jimmy Palmer on it, I worked as a croupier he was the book keeper. All meant to happen, now I'm a grandmother of a handsome grandson Nova.

    My grandfather was Carnival’s casino director during that time. The Holiday was one of the last ships i traveled on with him. Great memories. Thanks for the upload.

    Ah. When 46,000 GRT was large and that signature funnel was like a crown atop a Carnival ship. Now, 46,000 GRT is quaint and that distinctive funnel is like a tree stump atop an apartment block at sea.
    This was beautiful. Thanks for sharing it!

    This takes me back - I worked on the Holiday as a croupier, before transferring the Celebration and then into Holland America's Westerdam.

      I took the original Celebration in 2019 during it's late run stint with BPCL. I had to. I love cruise ships so much. I've been going since I was 10 and my first was the Fantasy. This was back in 04.

    I served on the Cruise Staff (Social Host we were then called) on the Holiday from September 1996 - November 1996, then was sent to the Carnival Ecstasy in Miami to finish my 6 month contract. I had a great time on the Holiday. The ship was ported out of Los Angeles at that time, so we had quite a few people from CA on board for most cruises. I remember lots of pretty California girls!! Yes, the Beach Boys were correct about that one!

    Nostalgia, for sure. I sailed on this ship during her inaugural season, during August of 1985. I cannot count the number of times I heard “Holiday” by Madonna played on the cruise!

    Man I miss this ship :'( I've been on nine Carnival cruises and sailed Holiday in 2008 out of Mobile. The crew on Holiday was absolutely the most personable, happiest crew out of all the ships I've been on. You could tell they all absolutely adored the Holiday and they would tell you they did! Sure, it was a little tired and worn, but it was just so charming. And it was so easy to navigate without having the Atrium in the middle. With the collapse of CMV, I'm really worried she may end up on the beaches of Turkey now. :'(

    • @cruisenostalgia3751

    My first cruise was onboard the MS Celebration when I was less than a year old. I remember absolutely none of it, so thank you so much for this video/upload.
    It stinks that the Jubilee already went for scrap and that so many of the Fantasy class are going to as well. I really liked the Tropical platform of cruise ships that sailed for Carnival Cruise Line and yeah. With the death of Knut Kolster, this is really feeling like the end of an era for cruising, so thank you again, so much for these uploads. Keep up the good work 👍

    Thank you for uploading this nostalgic masterpiece! This was funnily enough, one of my favorite VHS films to watch as a kid. Almost 32 now, have never been on a cruise before. This just gave me a ton of memories back from my childhood that I had forgotten about though! :.)

    My family was struggling economically in this era, so I never imagined I would one day take a cruise. While the industry has certainly improved since the 80s, I still think it’s a great value vacation. I’ll be going on my second cruise and we are taking our own kids on this one. They won’t have to wait until they brown to be exposed to other people and cultures.

    1st cruise was on the Holiday May 2009, came back to home port sideways because we were sinking. Port hole pooped/busted out. Scared us half to death BUT went on another cruise about 5 months later… lol just took our kids 1st cruise last fall, leaving for their 2nd in 1 day

    I was on this ship in 1989. But I don't recall the Blue Lagoon Lounge having games. Plus I stumbled across a topless deck. I'm sure it was meant for the people in the shows so they wouldn't have tan lines. LOL!

    We cruised on Holiday out of Mobile just before Carnival sold it. It wasn’t Carnival’s finest hour. The water from the taps was reddish brown and had an odd odor. We had to buy bottled water at Carnival’s inflated price just to brush our teeth and drink in the cabin. The water in the dining areas seemed fine though. There was the smell of sewage and wet carpet in the hallways and the ship was rusty and disheveled. The service crew was very good though and Diego, our waiter was excellent as was our cabin steward. Carnival lost me on that ship and I’ve never seen them quite the same, though we did sail with them some more.

    • @monkeyb1820
      @monkeyb1820 3 роки тому +1

      we took the Fantasy out of Mobile a couple of years ago, and although it had sort of ugly ancient decor, it was fine. And I think it was scrapped and if cruising ever starts back up, the ships should be really clean and in good shape. You should try it again, get a Guy's hamburger.
