Age groups onboard

We are off on The Celebration for Christmas! :D

 

I am a little concerned as we are taking our lads ages 16 and 14. Although they need no entertaining, I would hate for them to feel out of place with no others onboard approx their age.

Just interseted to the age groups you have experienced onboard. We went in November 3 years ago of which it was mostly older passengers.

At Christmas i.e. during school holidays, you will almost certainly see a different mix of passengers than in November when schools are in session.

 

We recently did a week on the Celebration (term time) and there were 13 children - but mainly under school age. I'm sure your teenagers will find quite a few other youngsters around. Enjoy your trip - I bet it's fab on Celebration at Christmas! :)

I've seen a pretty good mix on all Thomson Cruises. The upper teen age range tends to be a little harder to find, I think this is when they start to either want to stay at home or don't want to be part of the 'groovy gang'. There does tend to be a higher volume in school/college holidays and they create their own groups. We certainly used to onboard the ships I went on as a teen and the lengths we went to in order to gain alcohol!

 

I am now 23 and my girlfriend is 20, we off on the Destiny on the 7th of next month.

SwissLe, very nice to be able to say that at a young age you can choose to cruise :D

 

Agree Kruseeka, eldest is at the age where he chooses not to come, although he is looking forward to this cruise for some unknown reason :rolleyes:
