Ovation of the Seas Review

I cannot believe that Royal C requires an excursion to leave the ship!

Everything was great in terms of service, food, fun on the ship. However, Royal C requires a purchased excursion in order to get off the ship. This is infringing my freedom to tour without joining a group, and it has nothing to do with covid regulation.

Service and Food was great just like other cruises, but the fact that we were not allowed to dock when the ship docks REALLY IS a false adverting, and discriminatory. Traveller beware of this new rule on the app which is different from the rules on its website. The website says an excursion is not required to get off the ship, but when I am against a flock of crews... I felt so bullied.

I hope Royal C will take this as a learning experience to spell out the rules. Such up-selling is illegal, is holding against my will, and during this time, I want to avoid excursion/groups. And I should have the right to protect my health.
