  1. Which tour?

    If it makes a difference, it's not Royal Caribbean implementing these rules; it's the tour operator.  Royal is simply the middle man.

    I suspect the reason you're not allowed because of your age is because of the tour operator's liability requirements. Insurance, manufacturer recommendations, et al. They simply cannot afford to be cavalier with the rules or it leaves them open to legal troubles should you be injured.

    You might consider finding a third party excursion offering the same activity that would allow you to participate.

    Royal shifting to the 3/4 night sailings and limiting the longer sailings down to 7 days.  They’re quietly pushing those of us that enjoy longer sailings over to the sister company

    That's not a bad idea too, but I think they're primary idea is:

    New cruisers on 3/4 nighters

    Established cruisers on 7 nighters on Icon class.  Other ships in the fleet are a good second option.

    On Wonder and Utopia they totally enclosed the Solarium so no fresh breezes. Big fail I think.

    In the Caribbean, I'd much rather have full enclosed so it can be climate controlled.  It's not so much the issue of heat or a breeze, but the humidity.  Being enclosed means it's not super sticky.

    Makes the Solarium enjoyable even if you aren't in the pool

    They've known labadee wouldn't be open for weeks

    Incorrect. The first cancellations were announced this past Wednesday, less than 7 days ago

    refund as onboard credit instead of giving cruisers their money back to spend the way they chose

    That form of onboard credit is refundable so at the end of the cruise, unused money would be refunded back to your credit card.

    Also, the port cancellations have been pre-cruise, so those "thousands on excursions and cabanas" have been refunded pre-cruise.
