LARGIN Posted September 22, 2005 #2 Share Posted September 22, 2005 21 and they enforce it on the CB... Some CB waiters were fired for serving underaged cruisers so you will not get served at any of the bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisequeen10 Posted September 22, 2005 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I hope that someone in your group is 21 or over. I believe that in order to sail on the ship, this is the requirement. Also, someone in one of the cabins have to be that age too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted September 22, 2005 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2005 This is directly copied from the Princess web site: 5. AGE REQUIREMENTS; DRINKING AGE; GAMING AGE; ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES. The minimum passenger age is 6 months on Alaska, Canada/New England, Caribbean, Europe, Mexico and Transcanal cruises, and 12 months on all other cruises. Passengers under the age of 18 years must be accompanied by a Passenger over the age of 21. In addition to proof of citizenship, regardless of the relationship of the adult traveling companion, all children must have a notarized letter(s) of consent to travel signed by the non traveling parent(s) or legal guardian(s) if both parents or legal guardians are not traveling with the child. This written consent must be presented at embarkation and accompany the child during his or her cruise. Children accompanied by only one parent must present a notarized letter of consent to travel signed by the other parent, unless sole legal custody has been granted. In the case of divorce, adoption or other circumstances, the parent or legal guardian is required to present proof of sole legal custody of the child. The Passengers may be refused boarding if they are unable to produce documentation that the child may travel with the adults who are present. No alcohol may be purchased or consumed by any Passengers under the age of 21. No Passenger under the age of 21 shall be permitted to engage in any gaming activities on board the ship.

jpancake Posted September 22, 2005 #7 Share Posted September 22, 2005 CaiT34, Where exactly are you getting your information? You have to be 21 to both gamble and drink on Princess ships. You must also be accompanied by an adult (21 or over) in order to even board the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin4eva Posted September 22, 2005 #8 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Drinking age is 21.... but it sounds to me (IMHO) that it's not really going to matter what the "rule" is.... oh, but like the OP said in the first post... they aren't "Bad" kids! Whew!! I feel SOOOOOOO much better :eek: I agree with Sprongerob.... Troubles-a-brewing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No possible way you will be in the casino at 18 on Princess....well at least not for long anyway. You can get into bars at 18 but you won't be served alcoholic beverages.

Pam in CA Posted September 22, 2005 #15 Share Posted September 22, 2005 A tad tasteless...Natalie Holloway is hopefully a wake-up for parents that when they send their kids to foreign countries without adequate supervision, even the best kids will do things they wouldn't do at home. People think of the Caribbean as an extension of the US but it's not -- these are foreign countries and bad things can happen there just as they can in the U.S. If anything happens to any of you, you will have to live with that for the rest of your lives. Not knowing or not being prepared is no excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnql Posted September 22, 2005 #16 Share Posted September 22, 2005 we dont have to be 21 to cruise on CB u have to be 18....but thank you anyway....i was just asking because i went on the carnival legend in july (i was 17) and everyone my age was drinking everynight....some girls got it from bars...and others bought it in ports i was just wondering wat the age was to drink on ship cas i kno gambling is 18 Sounds like the Carnival crew wasn't enforcing its own rules, as far as drinking is concerned. Here are the age limits, as posted on Carnival's web site: Drinking Alcoholic Beverages: Guest must be 21 years of age or older to be served alcohol on board. Proper I.D. with birth date is required. Casino: Guest must be 18 years of age or older to play the tables and the slot machines. Guests under 18 years of age are not permitted in the casino.

CaiT34 Posted September 22, 2005 Author #17 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I am aware of the Natalie Holloway story...and yes i kno its dangerous to go on vacation with no adults...thats why i thought a cruise would be perfect cas i think its a lot safer then going to an island for a week....i understand the drinking age stuff and gambling thing... my friends and i (is that better english for you lol) just really want to do something all together before we all split up and go to college...does anyone have any ideas of places we can go that would be fun for us and safe at the same time ....i would love to hear your ideas....THANK YOU!!!!
