Going on a Carnival Cruise, young adult (nearly 18). How do I get involved?

Question

I'm cruising on the Carnival Liberty this New Year's. I'm 17 but will be 18 in January (just under the adult age, I know), and I'm trying to plan what exactly I'm going to do with myself. I pass easily as older than my age, and I'm more mature than most. Should I just take my chances with the more "adult" options or stick to the teen-oriented programs? What would be the advantages of each? I'm caught in the middle here...

Answer 1

You going with someone over 21? Because carnival will not allow you in a stateroom.

Answer 2

i am 17 pretty close to 18 as well and i went on a cruise and got to play blackjack and all the other casino games with my cousin who is 20 but still it was fun ...the teen c**p gets boring cause there usually 13-15 yr olds and still treat you like little children in daycare  ....cant drink but i had that under control lol

Answer 3

just show up at the activities and you will become involved really quick!  Is that fun or what!  Have fun  JUST SHOW UP TO THE ACTIVITIES!!!!!!

Answer 4

I went for my birthday on the Paradise and they had a teen disco and teen events going on during the entire ship Im sure you will have fun

Answer 5

Um, test the waters!  Try sitting by the side of their swimming pool in a skimpy bikini, and see what happens!
