Older cruisers on Carnival?

[Casino Player]

Carnival cruises seem to be popular with young people and I wonder if any of you who've gone remember many cruisers over 50? My husband and I are in our late 50's but we need a Saturday sailing so he will only have to miss one Sunday since he's a minister.

 

We went on Princess to Alaska 5 years ago and noticed most of the others were our age, but I'm told that's the case on most Alaska cruises.

 

This time we're wanting an Eastern Caribbean trip and would like to know we won't stick out like sore thumbs. :o

 

It depends on when you go and how long the cruise is. The longer the cruise the fewer younger people. Also, if you go when school is in session not at vacation time you will have fewer younger people. If you really want to feel young on a cruise go on Holland America. A friend of mine who was sixty six at the time said he was the "kid."

Hubby and I are in our late 40's. We were on one previous Carnival cruise this past Oct and we are taking another one aboard the Miracle in June.

 

Don't worry.....you will have a great time. :D

 

When in June are you going? We sail on June 12th.
