kruzgal Posted March 26 #1 Share Posted March 26 Should Celebrity make some of their M class ships adult only? We are currently on Infinity and whilst there are very few children (because there isn’t much for them onboard) it would seem to make sense to me for Celebrity to have at least a couple of their ships as adult only. P&O do this with their older, smaller ships and it is very popular. The teen/kids club could be converted into alternative dining venues which would be a bonus. Throw in some different itineraries and I think this could be a win for Celebrity. Thoughts? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted March 26 #2 Share Posted March 26 Forget about adult only ship , use M class for long cruises ,longer cruises less children 😁 take it down the Amazon River , take it Fiji and back from LA go to Cape Town Celebrity some thing different exciting 😁 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted March 26 #3 Share Posted March 26 We sat "No" to an X adult only ship.. OP can just cruise at times when it's not school break or pick longer itins. Agree that some new itins fir smaller/older ships should be added..even in the Carib. Other lines are available to fill the Adult only niche OP seeks! And who knows what they'd be like?Just read a recent post about an " adult" show on an X ship described as " vulgar"..Not our style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand your comments, but adult themed shows can appear on cruise lines that are not adult only. IMO adults only would simply mean no children and probably at least 18 or older as the minimum age. (In my mind it should be 21+). Such as is the case with Virgin Voyages and Viking Cruises, as two examples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why 21 , in most of the world people can join the military , vote , drink and get married at 18 in Malta where most of Celebrity ships are registered the drinking age is 17 At times the USA is so backwards 😁 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a judgement of world standards. And certainly not something to enter a debate about as it was only a personal comment regarding adult only cruises, of which the two I mentioned use 18 as their guideline.

Mike981 Posted March 26 #10 Share Posted March 26 On our Silhouette cruise this past January, you had to keep an eye out for any kids. On our 10 day (I understand 10 days limits a lot of kids) we saw two young girls with their parents and dad was an employee and a few teenagers. That was it. Great cruise by the way, I would cruise the Silhouette again in a heart beat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare hcat Posted March 26 #14 Share Posted March 26 A later post on same thread described a word game on the same ship...involving sex body parts..but said it was stupid! Years ago some of the regular Cirque shows had sexually suggestive and mysoginistic ( spell?) skits.. I hated the one where the male fake slaps the female & pulls her quite roughly by her hair. Happy that Sexist stuff like that is no longer acceoptable entertainment.! Maybe the sex oriented games should be left for frat boy, bachelor or bachelorette parties? Or the known edgier cruise lines! Ship should mark X rated so folks can avoid! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Honolulu Blue Posted March 26 #15 Share Posted March 26 6 hours ago, kruzgal said: Should Celebrity make some of their M class ships adult only? I was recently on the Summit which had an adults-only sailing. I can't recall if it was 18+ or 21+. This was a charter sailing and the age limit was set by the chartering company. The Summit is a popular ship to be chartered and many, if not most, charters are adults only. I have no opinion on whether Celebrity should designate more routes or entire ships as adults only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy planning mom Posted March 26 #16 Share Posted March 26 We were on the Apex which is a newer, popular ship and there was maybe 5 kids tops on the whole ship. Just sail when school is in session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entertainment is very subjective and every adult oriented show I have ever been too it was made clear ahead of time…I have also never seen them not let anyone leave the show if they were caught off guard, etc..
