A review of Royal Caribbean Odyssey of the Seas. This is one of the newer Royal Caribbean ships that made its North American debut in November 2022 and is spending the summer sailing the Mediterranean. 

Richard has cruise news: 

• Carnival adds two more ships to its U.S. lineup 
• Crystal Cruises returns after bankruptcy 
• Carnival Corp brand drops pre-cruise testing 
• Disney Wish readies for its July debut from Port Canaveral 
• Norwegian delays another ship because of supply chain issues 

Listener Question: We are looking to try our first Celebrity Crusie next year and currently pricing them out. I know it's all-inclusive pricing, but the only issue is we gave up drinking years ago. Is there a way to get a lower fare if we want to opt-out of the drink package? — Linda
