We are cruising with our 16-month-old in March on Liberty of the Seas.  We are in an interior standard stateroom and I'm trying to figure out the room layout logistics of the cruise provided pack n play.  I've seen on several kids travel tip sites using magnetic hooks and blackout curtains to create a sleeping space (sample photo is from a Carnival cruise).  Can anybody confirm whether Liberty of the Seas has metal on the ceiling? Or would Command hooks be a better idea?  Can we ask them to remove the little glass table?  Also, open to any other ideas!

This is the extremely old post, but I was looking for pack n play arrangement ideas for our upcoming cruise with a 16-month-old. What did you use to secure that sheet to make a little room divider?

We are on the March 6th cruise on Liberty and just completed one with her on January 16th. Windjammer is definitely open and we saw many families there eating and enjoying themselves (we never go anywhere else when we have the G-kids along). You do not need reservations and the only advice would be checking for the line. It was long only at opening otherwise there was never a wait. They scan your ship card for number of guests present and typically scan it on the way out. The Washy-Washy check-in folks are the best! The staff serve the portions to you as you hold your plate typical to many buffet style restaurants currently. Our grand kids loved the pools and on Adventure Ocean just check for reservations and the protocols for the week as soon as you get onboard as they may change due to the number of kids for that sailing. Have fun and enjoy!

Are unvaccinated allowed in Windjammer? Our kiddo is too young

You will have a great time on the cruise. One if the best things about a cruise for parents of young children is that you can spend a week where everything is done for you!

Windjammer will definitely be open and he may also enjoy eating at Sorrento's if he likes pizza.

If you are comfortable having him in Adventure Ocean, I would suggest getting there as soon as you board to reserve some times so that you can enjoy the free babysitting while you enjoy a nice quiet dinner in the main dining room, or one of the specialty restaurants.

Liberty has a great pool area for younger kids.

Be sure to know that you must book an official Royal Caribbean excursion since your child will not have been vaccinated. 

Have fun!. My family is on the March 13th Liberty of the Seas. It will be our 3rd cruise on this ship and we really enjoy it.

It sounds like we will literally be waving at you guys as you leave Galveston as we are on the March 20th sailing!  Thank you so much for the reassurance! We are pretty experienced at Royal Caribbean ships, but this is our first time bringing a little one and the first time since the world went sideways.

We are sailing on Liberty of the seas in March for the first time since COVID. We are taking our 17-month-old and I'm realizing now a lot of my plans were made without consideration to some of the sailing changes. For example, I was counting on feeding him at windjammer for dinner vs the main dining room since he's picky (and noisy!). Any idea if they've reopened enough capacity for dinner service there?  I've also been reading something about it requiring reservations to eat there now? How hard is it to do this?  It actually seems like you need reservations to do almost any ship activities... Do the reduced capacities make this easy to do or we going to find ourselves out of luck frequently?
