The main dining room offers both traditional assigned times and seatings, as well My Time Dining where cruisers can pick their dining time and change their reservations daily. In addition to the Lido Deck buffets, diners can also make reservations for Portofino (which serves upscale Italian food), and the Chops Grille steakhouse. Both restaurants charge extra fees.

Royal Connect Phones (available for a small fee) help passengers stay in touch with each other on board, and even help parents track their kids' whereabouts.

All of the basic massages and treatments are offered, plus more-exotic procedures including 24-karat gold facials, Botox injections, acupuncture and teeth whitening.

Kids
Royal Caribbean's kids programs provide fun and learning for children from babies to teens.
Royal Babies® and Royal Tots® are 45-minute, interactive playgroup sessions developed by early childhood experts at Fisher-Price®.
The complimentary, award-winning Adventure Ocean® Youth Program is let led by accredited, experienced counselors with four-year degrees in education, recreation or a related field. Onboard Freedom of the Seas, kids aren't just kids. They're inquisitive scientists exploring the insect world, eye-patched pirates, or the next great athlete to take the gold at the Wacky Olympics. With interactive programs and activities designed just for their age group, Adventure Ocean gives kids the chance to imagine themselves embarking on a whole new adventure.
Teens and Tweens
The teen and tween program (12-14 and 14-17) isn't a structured set of classes or rules - these almost adults deserve a vacation all their own. They can join pre-planned events throughout the day or simply hang out in teen-only spaces - with Adventure Ocean staff who keep the good times coming. Activities include rock climbing, dodgeball, video game tournaments, barbecues, movie nights, talent shows and even a DJ Academy.
Kids and teens can enjoy activities into the late evening with extended hours in the Adventure Ocean and teen-only spaces. An hourly rate applies after 10 p.m.
Kids of all ages will enjoy the free DreamWorks® Experience, which includes including parades, as well as meet and greets and character dining with favorite characters from Shrek®, Madagascar®, and Kung Fu Panda®.
