wrkara Posted January 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2023 My friend and I (both 23) want to cruise with her younger sister (17). If I'm understanding correctly, we can't as Carnival requires a 25 year old in a room with a minor. Is my friend able to act as a guardian even though she's under 25 because they're related or should we put our trip on hold? Thought I'd ask here before I email my pvp the same question 😂 thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the 17yo cannot sail in this example as they would need a chaperone over 25. Edited January 22, 2023 by ray98 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrkara Posted January 22, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I cruised in November with my 19 y/o cousin in the same room as me. PVP said no problem because of "Guests 18 – 20 years of age Do not have any restrictions and may book whatever location they prefer." No questions were asked at check in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a horse of another color. A 19 year old is not a minor. A 17 year old is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Eli_6 Posted January 22, 2023 #10 Share Posted January 22, 2023 It doesn't have to be in the same room, but someone on a linked booking would need to be over 25 for the 17 year old. The two 23 year olds are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teknoge3k Posted January 23, 2023 #12 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Someone doesn't have to be booked in the same cabin as them, just have the reservations linked. We always put our kids in their own cabin. They are the primary guest in the cabin and we do not book an adult in the cabin with them. However their reservation is linked to ours.
