kicker Posted October 17, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 17, 2012 My husband and I are thinking about going on the Miracle on 11/30..We are retired Ages 72 and 78..Do you think we are too old for this ship? Thank you You're never too old to cruise on any ship!!:D Go to Carnival Roll Calls and check out the thread for that cruise - you'll probably get an idea of the ages of fellow passengers. However, I wouldn't let that totally sway me even if its a younger group and, most likely, its not going to be a younger group because most kids are in school. My guess would be most will be in the 50 to 60 range, some older, some younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumorgan Posted October 17, 2012 #5 Share Posted October 17, 2012 As long as your young at heart. Seriously age should not be a problem on that ship. You should fit right in. Few kids at that time of year, more square feet per passenger on the spirit class ships. Go have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyralph Posted October 17, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 17, 2012 The most memorable couple we ever met on a Carnival ship was a GORGEOUS women in her late 70's and her equally attractive hubby (actually I think he was a boyfriend), in his early 80's. They dressed beautifully. They were amazing dancers and could not have been more charming. We so enjoyed the privilege of cruising with them. Even our teen daughter (14 at the time) enjoyed their company. Go be a role mdoel for successful aging and have a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starfish216 Posted October 18, 2012 #8 Share Posted October 18, 2012 GO FOR IT! You have an opportunity to take a cruise and not have to fly. We sailed on the Miracle twice in the off season (early May) with my dad who is in his early 80's and my uncle who is 89. We all had a great time. What I did notice that since most kids were still in school the ship had more older folks along with a mix of young folks with small children. Some folks walk a little slower than others but it was all great! So don't hesitate and go for it while you can. Enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cv322 Posted October 18, 2012 #9 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Book the cruise and enjoy the ship! There's always many seniors on the ship. I just got off the Miracle last Saturday (my 5th on this ship) and saw many "young at heart" folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravedigger Posted October 19, 2012 #11 Share Posted October 19, 2012 If you are in one of the grand suites remember the shower is in the whirlpool tube and it is 30" high. How are your hips and knees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
