18 year old cruising with 17 year old friend

[spookwife]

OP is not cruising by him/herself. The original post says "Me, my family , and my friend are cruising".

 

But, to answer the question, yes, I believe there are cruiselines that will allow an under 21 to book a room.

 

 

Disney and Cunard is 18

he's in trouble if they do a grammar check!

Is it even legal to cruise by yourself when you're under 21?

 

Most cruiselines if you are under 21 someone in the cabin MUST be age 25 or over by the date of sailing.

 

the Premium lines like disney will allow an 18 year to book their cruises-- and if an 18 year old can afford that--power to them

The reasoning behind not allowing 18 yo in Teen Club is that on some cruise lines they can buy alcoholic drinks if their parents have given them permission.

 

As stated earlier in this thread, most kids meet other kids close to their age the first night and then just hang out together around the ship for the rest of the cruise. So, you can hang out with them too.

incorrect. only CARNIVAL requires some one 25 and up if a minor is sailing. all other lines it is 21; exceptions are made with proof of marriage on all lines, yes even Carnival.

Yeah they're not going to make any exceptions once you're an adult and he is under 18. I'd be very cautious with that on RC. They have no problem escorting people off the bigger boats. Once you scan your seapass its going to indicate your age
