Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd's current ratio has been declining over the years, from 0.95 in December 2020 to 0.17 in December 2024. This downward trend indicates that the company may be facing challenges in meeting its short-term obligations with its current assets. A current ratio below 1 suggests that the company may have difficulty covering its current liabilities with its current assets alone.
