I know you must BOOK it so there is someone over 25 in a cabin, but many
families then do a "switch" once they are in the actual cabin hallways. The parents are in their own cabin and the kids are often across the hall in an inside cabin. Some ships have adjoining cabins, as well. I know with our large family cruise a few years ago and again coming up next July, we were all booked "legally", but once we got on board, the 5 girls cousins all slept in their own cabin across from several of us adults who were in our own cabins so we could keep an eye on them. In our next cruise, only 4 can fit in the cabin and they will be sandwiched in between their parents' cabins and across from the grandparents. The 5th girl (our daughter) will be with us, however, they can take turns and she can join them a few times, I hope. Their ages will be 13, 14, 14, 14½ and 15. Probably an easier age to control than the 17-21 age group. They're still at the giggly-ooooh-I-saw-a-cute-boy-let-me-have-the-mirror-does-this-skirt-look- okay-on-me? stage. grin Lindsay |

I read a recent post about a family that wanted to switch rooms once aboard,
but they wanted their cards to match the door locks. They went to the guest relations desk and were surprised when they cheerfully reprogramed the cards so mom and dad could be in one room and their minor children could be in the other cabin. I think it was RCCL. "Linsifer" wrote in message ... I know you must BOOK it so there is someone over 25 in a cabin, but many families then do a "switch" once they are in the actual cabin hallways.

What is the age for drinking on a cruise ship? 18 or 21? (Out of Florida) What is the age that a cruise ship will allow someone to cruise without their parents? I was wondering how many people use cruise ships for spring break activities without their parents around? Thanks Bill The official drinking age is 21 on all cruise lines except RCI, where it is 18, AFAIK. But it's not hard for teens to get drinks on any line, since once the ship is in international waters there are no legalities involved and they really don't care. I think Princess will let you cruise at 18, but check with them. |

I may be wrong, but I remember once my ship ID card was also my room
key. In this case, if the ID cards are marked "under 21" for the teens, how do they open a cabin door to which they are not assigned?

"how do they open a cabin door to which they are not assigned"
As I said in my other post, the desk reprogrammed the cards so they could open the door to the cabin they were actually staying in. |
