Do I need to pay for my infant on a cruise?

Question

I have seen the price bars for cruises, I noticed that the first bar starts at 2yrs old, do infants realy travel for free? thanks for your time

Answer 1

Why would you bring an infant on a cruise?  That's just plain ridiculous.  Get a babysitter!!!

Answer 2

Generally, yes children do travel free, sometimes under 5's, sometimes under 2's.  However, most travel companies (except buses) do ask for a basic administration fee of around £20 for an infant.  Hope this helps, if you book the cruise - enjoy!

Answer 3

Mostly children have to be over 6 months old. But yes under 2's go free and often there are big discounts for children if they share a cabin with 2 full fare paying adults.

Answer 4

Well we've been on a few cruises,and Ive two kids aged ten &nine,and so far weve got them on free..but dont get exited,because it all depends on the cruise and cruise line youre going with. Were going away in sept with my sister and her 2year old, her husband wasn't coming at the time of booking she had to pay full fare for her, .Now her husband is comming my niece is on free To get a child free you have to pay 2 adult fares. If you are a single parent you have to pay 2 adult fares no matter what age the child. If not there may be a percentage to pay for the child.

Answer 5

Its a idea but a long shot.  If you take a cruise by japan/get off and have a baby most likely you'll get money for having the baby in japan.  Of course the baby will be a japanese citizen but thats besides the point.  So just get pregnant then go to japan, collect 8000 dollars... go on your cruise.
