Here are the updated fleet-wide dinner menus on Carnival for a 5-night cruise (you can find the menus for 3-night cruises HERE, the menus for 4-night cruises HERE, the menu for 6-night cruises HERE, and the menus for 7 or 8-night cruises HERE). While this is usually the order of the menus on 5-night itineraries, double check once onboard.
Is there complimentary lobster served on 5 night Carnival cruises? No, there is no complimentary lobster served on Carnival cruises of 5 nights or less.

Class Dismissed!
I ALWAYS buy travel insurance (especially during these uncertain times) to cover my cruises, but I NEVER purchase it through Carnival. It costs more and usually covers less than policies you purchase on your own. I go through sites like travelinsurance.com to compare plans and prices and get the best deal for the coverage I want. Spend less on insurance and spend more on excursions, special onboard cruise experiences and…future cruises!
Homework (10 points): Share to the comments what you think of these new menus.
