The paint peeling can happened on a much newer ship too as the saltwater environment they exist in is tuff on them. It is more a lack of msintainance than age. That's a lot of ship to paint. On every RCI cruise we have been on we have seen them touching up paint on hull in ports and actively cleaning or painting some part of ship during cruise. Full time job.

Not too bad

it was really fun and I had a good time but there weren’t many kids activities and the ones that they did offer were always already filled up. Plus my sister and I weren’t in the same age group and it’s hard for us to talk to others

Nice Caribbean Cruise
