And the 65+ year olds are the ones with all the time and money!!!  Also probably are under the impression that there's no 'afternoon delight' in their old lives either!  (wink-wink)

 

They should attend the Love and Marriage game.

 

One cruise, the oldest couple won.  Married over 50 years (so over 65).

 

Capper of an answer was to the most interesting place they had made whoppee.  The answer, the ship, the night before. 😄

Tried to Book Tabyana Lunch and Snorkel with RCL but we are not eligible because we are over 65! Well, I never!!

Hmm have to find a way around this.

 That's ok more money to spend on a private tour which is ALWAYS better! 🙂

Doubt it is RCL as most excursion companies are independent.  Agree must be insurance for the small companies - and departing/arriving US waters does not matter as you are dealing with foreign entities.  Just rent the equipment on the beach, or better yet take your own.

I can understand having waivers, warnings, etc. but a blanket rule against snorkeling (of all things) over 65 seems crazy to me.  Maybe on the first sea day they just need to have a little fitness test like walking up a dozen decks.  

Then that will knock out half the other people that are signed up.🤣🏃‍♂️

Hmm. Just thinking out loud. 

 

Is HAL able to offer ANY excursions at all?

Carriage rides and city tours for all😃

My parents went on a cruise for their 60th anniversary when they were both 80. My mother went on a banana boat excursion and a zipline (my dad stayed on the ship).  That was 10 years ago so maybe things have changed since then for age restrictions.  My mother is a bit fearless, she did a tandem sky dive for her 75th birthday and also for her 85th.  She already has her sky dive planned for October for her 90th birthday.

So I went on iFly, FlowRider, and ZipLine...but Scuba Diving is "dangerous" for anyone 65+.

 

Hmmm...glad to be "protected"...that clears things up.
