minimum age in casino

[gdpups]

Can anyone tell me what the minimum age is to gamble in the casino on the Freedom of the Sea???

[cb at sea]

In Caribbean waters and European waters, it's 18-- Alaskan cruises , 21

[wrp96]

Minimum age to gamble on RCCL is 18, the exception is Alaska cruises where it is 21.

If you are 18+ please be perpared to show ID. Don't be insulted, it is simply policy.

My son is very baby faced and they just asked him how old, he was 19 and they said fine. Never actually asked for an ID in the casino.

Did they ask to see his sea pass? They can tell from that by the number of holes punched in it. 2 holes means under 18 1 hole means between 18 & 21.

My daughter's friend said she sailed on the Freedom a few years ago and they didn't let her gamble because she was 18 and the minimum age to gamble is 21. Just wanted to make sure that wasn't the case.

was it on alaska carnival freedom.

18+ RCI, 21 only in alaska

[sailinglisa]

Neither Freedom (Carnival or Royal Caribbean) sails in Alaska this year. 21 in Alaska, 18 everywhere else - but not sure about Hawaii.

My son had just turned 18 on our Monarch cruise last February. He could gamble in the casino, but they did ask for ID (as in driver's license). We were on the Indy in the Med last month, and he was able to gamble also, though I don't think he was asked for ID on this cruise.

why is it 21 in alaska, state law or something

Because the gambling age in the US is 21.

compass says intinary-specific laws require 21+

carnival, NCL mention no such laws

All the Alaska cruises have a 21 gambling age because you are in US waters. RCCL specifies the law and the others don't it still doesn't change the policy.

does that mean 21+ on those line's alaska cruises?

The minimum age for Alaska is 21 on all cruise lines.

 

sailinglisa: While in Hawaii's waters, there is no gambling of any kind allowed on cruise ships. (That's why the NCLA Pride of America has no casino or bingo; the ship is US-registered and had to make certain consessions to Hawaii and US law that internationally flagged ships do not.) I believe that most ships that do the mainland-Hawaii routes have their casinos open during the crossings. I'm going to guess that the age would be 18, but it could be that Hawaii or the US Government require those itineraries to have a gambling age of 21.

It is a law and not a cruise line determined rule. It is the same for ALL cruise ships that visit Alaska.

I'd specifically like to know about Freedom of the Sea in the Caribbean. Does anyone know the age to gamble on that specific ship??

Wrona is right, it is definatly 18. Don't know why gdpups daughter's friend wasn't allowed.

 

Freedom does Caribbean, 18 is the age.

[gdpups]

Thanks so much for all your responses. This is such an incredible resource for information!

[collegecruiser346]

Just to recap...Gambling age on RCCL is 18 once in international waters. Alaska is 21. There is no gambling allowed in the waters near Hawaii. It has to be in international waters.
