Age restraits on a cruise with a minor?

Question

I am a 16 year old and want to go on a cruise with my two friends who are 19 and 20.. (Royal carribean) is anyone familiar with their policy for a minor without a parent. Would this be allowed and if not are there any ways to have a parent sign of legality papers? Thanks for the help

Answer 1

don't know...

Answer 2

Sorry guys.  None of you can go without a parent.  It's not just you--they can't book the room either.

No guest under the age of twenty-one (21) will be booked in a stateroom unless accompanied by an adult twenty-five (25) years of age, or older. This age limit will be waived for minor children sailing with their parents or guardians in adjacent staterooms or under-aged married couples (proof of marriage is required).

Princess will let you go at 18 and up but no US ones will let you go by yourself at 16.  Perhaps smaller ships or European cruiselines.  I'm not sure about those.  But you--at 16--can't enter any contracts b/c you are just a minor.  Therefore, you can't buy a ticket without a parent or guardian to vouch for you.

Sorry, you need someone over the age of 21 to get in, and the answer above me explained it personally, you could get an older sibling or something to take you and book a room or just wait until the 20 year old turns 21.
