Parents Can Now Track Their Kids on Royal Caribbean’s Newest Ship
If you're sailing on Legend of the Seas, Star of the Seas, or Icon of the Seas with kids ages three to 12, register them for Adventure Ocean after boarding and buy a $14.99 WOW Band to enable "Find My Kid" tracking in the Royal Caribbean app. You'll need to connect to the ship's Wi-Fi, but no paid internet package is required. Keep the band for future sailings on any Royal Caribbean ship offering the service, since it's reusable and won't need to be repurchased.
Royal Caribbean is standardizing "Find My Kid" across its Icon-class fleet, moving from a 2024 Icon of the Seas test to Star of the Seas in 2025 and now Legend of the Seas at her July 4, 2026 debut. The economics are worth noting: $14.99 buys a reusable band, not a subscription, and it works without a data package — a low-friction upsell that likely pays for itself in Adventure Ocean sign-ups and RFID-enabled onboard spending. Parents win with peace of mind and a muster-station safety net; Royal Caribbean wins by tying tracking to a device that also unlocks cabins and taps SeaPass-style purchases. My read is this becomes standard across new Royal ships rather than a one-off perk. If I were sailing with young kids on any of these three vessels, I'd register for Adventure Ocean and grab the band on embarkation day before lines form.
