In Europe younger crowds do get pulled towards the cheaper end; Costa, Thomson, OV, Island etc with their 7 day deals in the sunny med. I did a Baltic cruise on Star Princess in 2005, but even then there was a good mix of ages, plenty of families and quite a few teenagers, who kindly kept themselves out of the way at the back of the ship.

 

However as backpackers rarely take cruises, if a cruise is longer than 2 weeks, then like with any holiday, the numbers of under 40's able to go is going to drop substantially.
