billie5 Posted March 26, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 26, 2012 In our experience, Celebrity crowd is a bit older. But makes no difference to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RosieCanberra Posted March 26, 2012 #8 Share Posted March 26, 2012 What is the average age for each cruiseline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helpthejuggler Posted March 26, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Yes, I am younger than a friend who has only sailed Princess. But on Celebrity I sailed with people who are older than old friend, so No. Can we have easier questions for Monday mornings, as my mind is failing in my old age. Why did I come in here again, oh yes my keys there they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did I come in here again, oh yes my keys there they are. From your reply, I think I am younger than you and your friend from Princess, which may be older than you when you are on Celebrity. I am so confused. Can anyone tell me how to pose easier questions?:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esprit Posted March 26, 2012 #11 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I'd say a bit younger and more family orientated. We always chose Princess when our kids were growing up as there were lots of activities. The nightlife for them on Princess ships was better too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny01 Posted March 26, 2012 #12 Share Posted March 26, 2012 My very subjective wild guess is they are pretty much the same. I saw more scooters (some even required by the user instead a convience) on Princess. Den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisetrail Posted March 26, 2012 #14 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I know it depend on the time of year and the lenght of the cruise, but all things being equal... The S-class has been designed for the oldest crowd. Even older than HAL. Inadequate pool deck, no jogging track, no promenade, shallow covered pool, grass lawn, slow pace life - a comfortable long term/rehab facility for 70+.

Oxo Posted March 26, 2012 #15 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Does it really matter who has the oldest passengers? The only time to worry about that is when you are on that specific cruise on that specific ship. Other than that, how does anyone know what the age group is? Lets take a survey the next time we cruise. It is your cruise, enjoy it regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixit2010 Posted March 26, 2012 #19 Share Posted March 26, 2012 very slightly, you see i did Princess, and then a year later I did Celebrity, so in answer to your question, I would say that I was a year older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted March 26, 2012 Author #20 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Does it really matter who has the oldest passengers? The only time to worry about that is when you are on that specific cruise on that specific ship. Other than that, how does anyone know what the age group is? Lets take a survey the next time we cruise. It is your cruise, enjoy it regardless. It might. For example, on Princess DH and I were able to get a table for four just for the two of us with Anytime dining as long as we went to the dining room after 7:45 pm. This was because most of the passengers wanted to eat earlier. Most of the passengers were also older. Had we gone to dinner earlier, we would have been put at a table for two that is very, very close to other tables. I would like to have a similar dining experience on Celebrity and thought eating later would work, however, someone posted that 7:45 would be too early to arrive for dinner on Celebrity since the room is still very crowded. So I wondered, if passengers were a bit younger on Celebrity. I don't want to eat much later than 7:45, so I was actually hoping for older passengers. Of course, just because older Princess cruisers like to eat early doesn't mean older Celebrity cruisers do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still crowded. Port intensive so many people wanted to dine later and more Europeans on board who generally dine late as a rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed Celebrity still offers 15 Hawaii sailings with two stops on the Big Island. I think that is great and hope we can try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
