I wish that ALL cruise lines would be more vigilant at removing articles left by people saving lounge chairs. We've been on multiple Royal Caribbean cruises (including Freedom of The Seas) and our experience is that RCC does NOT enforce their own rules. Kind of sad too. Best enforcement we saw was on the Disney Cruise Line where even the person taking care of the pool will intervene when families try to set up shop in the adult pool area-they don't need to get a ship's officer like on RCC.

Rude behavior lives on...............<sigh>
