To many cruisers, 5:30 or 6 p.m. is the ideal time to eat dinner on a Carnival cruise because of the evening entertainment schedule. “If we eat any later, we miss everything because food service tends to be slower later in the evening,” Jessica Garbutt explained.

Celebration Key is the Carnival Cruise Line's private resort in the Bahamas. The island has more than 30 venues, including dining and for cocktails, and it's heavily promoted on the cruise ship line's website.

Two passengers on separate Carnival cruise ships died over the weekend after drowning incidents near Celebration Key, the company's private resort in the Bahamas that opened in July. One was a 79-year-old male and the other a 74-year-old female, the Royal Bahamas Police Force said in a statement issued Saturday. Both were American.
