Thascales Posted November 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Hi all- asking this on behalf of my sister and brother in law who have never cruised before. They want to travel on Celebrity Silhouette with my nephew who will be 17 on the date of travel. 1 - Can he share their cabin? 2 - If they have a drinks package, does he have to have one? any other advice or information gratefully received.

omeinv Posted November 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2022 He would have to be either in a cabin with someone of age, or in a cabin adjacent to our connecting with his parents. if he shared the cabin with them perks generally include passengers 1 and 2 only. So he wouldn’t typically have an included drink package. Harris Denver, CO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted November 7, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Yes he can share the cabin as long as the cabin they book can sleep 3 and they book for 3 people. If they price with a beverage package he would get the Classic Non Alcohol package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFontaine Posted November 7, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 7, 2022 They should also price an inside cabin for him solo, as long as the inside cabin is across the hall/ very close (what that seems to mean varies). It might not be much more than adding him as a third, and everyone would have more privacy and a second bathroom. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algebralovr Posted November 7, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 7, 2022 They may want to look at pricing for adding the 17 year old to their cabin, vs an interior nearby. They may find that the cost is similar for the two options. If they want a beverage package for themselves, And not the young person, they can book all inclusive (tends to be about $600/person but includes classic drinks, gratuities and WiFi) and they can do a cruise only for the inside room for the minor. Then they can buy a NA package if desired for the minor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveThatCorgi Posted November 8, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 8, 2022 We have done both. We always booked our teenage son as a third person in our cabin until this past spring. For our last cruise, we booked him in the inside across the hall from our balcony room. He was almost 18 at the time (3 months before birthday). Having the second room was great. We will be doing that from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In doing that they need to add the cost not only for the beverage package but also the wi-fi and gratuities which the 3rd person gets if they booked AI rate for the cabin.

upwarduk Posted November 8, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Beware of providing him with alcoholic drinks. A family were put off the ship in Gibraltar for providing alcohol to minors and as we were in Europe a minor is below 18 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl94 Posted November 8, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 8, 2022 No guest under age 18 may possess or consume alcohol at any time while onboard. No guest under age 21 may possess or consume alcohol at our private destinations. Any guest who goes ashore and consumes alcohol (whether under the supervision of a parent/guardian or not, is responsible for ensuring they consume responsibly and retain their ability to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations when they return to the ship. Parents/guardians are reminded they are responsible for the actions of their child/young adult at all times while on a Celebrity Cruises® cruise vacation. Guests who violate any alcohol policy, including but not limited to underage drinking; providing alcohol to minors or young adults; possessing, concealing or attempting to conceal alcoholic items in their luggage, when boarding or while onboard; engaging in alcohol drinking games; or failing to consume alcohol responsibly, will be considered for discipline under the provisions of this policy.

Gratuities, yes, but they may not wish to provide wifi for the 17 year old, or they may not need both wifi for themselves and can give one of them to the teen. Also, a NA package is SUBSTANTIALLY less than alcohol, so it may still be less. Not sharing a room with a 17 year old boy? Priceless. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
