So basically comparing apples to apples. The nightly parades, all night deck parties, the involvement of the Cruise entertainment staff, etc. is WAY more over the top and prevalent on the LS Cruise. Absolutely everything is catered to adults only and the more open mindset of LS people! The ice is removed from the skating rink and turned into a disco, the main deck pools become a booming rave everynight (no family movies shown!! LOL), one of the nightclubs has numerous beds and curtains set up with towel attendents and cleaning staff constantly around, the private parties in the bars/nightclubs/meeting rooms, Even the RCCL TV gets more risqué and involved!! We could go on and on. In our opinion, Couples Cruises are worth EVERY extra penny and then some!!! And STILL... Best of all..... NO KIDS!!!! LOL C&C
