Review summary

We are long time cruise passengers on Royal Caribbean and their shift in policy to cater to children who are free is causing us to rethink another cruise on this line. As we see it the line is letting children ride free and has programs for them that the adult passengers w/o kids are paying for . Royal shouldn’t be a Disney wannabe!
