RCI's youth program hours are usually: 9-12; 2 to 5 pm; and 7 to 10 p.m. After 10 p.m., you can pay an hourly fee until 1 a.m. for your kids to stay in the youth programming. On port days, they usually open the youth programming 1/2 hour prior to the first shore excursion in case parents want to go without kids. Plus, they'll make lunch arrangements on port days for the kids too.
Smooth sailing,
