Royal Caribbean is VERY strict about their age policies......especially the minimum age to participate in the Adventure Ocean program. The child MUST be 3 years old (not even 2 years and 364 days old) to be allowed in AO, but they also MUST be potty trained and INDEPENDENT with adjusting their clothing and doing personal hygiene. Your 35 month old will not be allowed in AO. Sorry - this is what their liability insurance policy dictates.
