CRUISE COMPASS  Each day passengers on
INDEPENDENCE OF THE SEAS receive a copy of Cruise
Compass listing the day's events and providing other
information.  Attached is a copy of one issue.  It is presented for
historical purposes as Beyondships has no control over Royal
Caribbean and cannot say whether it is representative of what
Royal Caribbean will do in the future.
