Makes complete sense. If you don't have disposable income, then you can't afford Oceania. And generally, disposable income increases after 55 (when your kids are independent, amongst other things). Celebrity isn't nearly as pricey as Oceania, but is generally more than RC and Carnival. As such, you can expect an average age above 50 on their ships.

I am 60 and my wife is 56. We are hoping for a crowd around our age. We did an Oceania cruise once and we were definitely younger on that one. Average age was 70+. The other cruises we have been on were with RCI mostly with our kids. Now that they are all grown up we are looking forward to a more upscale relaxing time with good food and atmosphere. We think Celebrity will fit that bill. We are actually pretty excited about it. Since this cruise is in mid November and a 10 day itinerary we surmise that the demographic will be a little older and minimal kids. Perfect for us. You are only as old as you feel. I'm sure we will have a good time regardless! Both Celebrity and Holland should work well for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 60 and my wife is 56. We are hoping for a crowd around our age. I was on Beyond for Caribbean out of Ft L. the end of July (6 night). I felt like it was one of the most 'all ages represented' ships I've been on. But I think upper 60s is where the older crowd peaked. It's very possible they weren't attending the events I was. I think the average age was probably early 40s. I'm just over 50 and I felt like I was average age on the ship in most of my interactions. There were quite a few kids on the ship but I only know that because they show in numbers at the buffet and pizza venue. I didn't notice them as much at shows and only a handful at the activities. I never felt any kids were disruptive in any way - very well behaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
