Would you take your teens on a premier cruise?

[CruiseMomTX]

My husband and I both have Premier offers and have never booked one and are wondering about taking our teens, 18, 15, 15. We would each book a room so we will have two rooms with the perks. Would we end up spending too much time in the casino and not enough with the kids? We usually go there after our late dining time anyway and the kids do their own thing at that point. During the port days we are all together for excursions and on Sea Days they usually sleep in the we all go to the pool and lunch and afternoon together. Also I know they wont get drinks on us but would they get a soda card or and gifts? We will probably wait until they are back in school but just wondering about taking one this summer. Thanks for any help or input.

I would think at those ages the kids would be ok on their own. They would know where to find you if they had questions.

 

I would. The ports would be the same.

They would be fine the cruise ship is no different then any other time just because your booking under a premier offer

 

The drinks on us will only be for you guys the kids won't get anything out of it

No gifts or drink cards for the kids, otherwise just a normal cruise. If you spend your after dinner time in the casino and the kids can do their own thing.

Leave them home.

A premier is no different from any other cruise to most guests. Take the deal and enyoy the cruise!!

I would! We're taking our kids (9 and 7) to Cuba this summer and Europe next summer. Your kids are certainly old enough to be left to their own devices for a time. Ours have to go to kids camp or stay with us at this point.

Absolutely. My sons are same age range and we usually have breakfast with the youngest and they have the sea days to themselves. We always have dinner together and then often our evenings are spent doing our own thing - though we often share a show or comedy club. Port days are spent together. It is a great balance of time together and time for everyone to relax.
