I'm going on a cruise... Can i drink on board?

Question

I am 18 and I'm going on a cruise to Mexico and I was wondering what the drinking age was. If we are in mexico can I drink on board because the drinking age is 18 there?

Answer 1

Sorry, RCCL is very strict on their drinking policy. Unless your on a european itinerary then 18 would be their minimum drinking age. You can always drink when your in MEXICO!! Happy Cruising!

Answer 2

chances are NO.

Depending on what cruise line you are on, maybe, but most, including Royal Caribbean and Carnival, require you to be 21 by the date you board the ship to be able to drink on board.

Answer 3

21 to drink on the ship and they do check ids.  18 in port and they are pretty lax on checking ids

Answer 4

NO, No, not on the ship at all. The legal drink age on all  cruise ships is age 21 and it does not change when you are in international waters or docked in a foreign port. Its still age 21 and older.  And all of the cruise lines DO enforce it.  The only exception to this is if you cruise from a European port and your parents sign a waiver for you to have beer and wine. Otherwise always no.

BUT, when you get to Puerto Vallarta, Cabo, Acapulco, and other ports in Mexico you can drink all you want in the clubs, bars and restaurants because the drinking age in Mexico is age 18 and older. Then you cannot bring alcohol back on board the ship either as it will be confiscated by the cruise line.
