Is there a minimum drinking age on cruise ships?

Question

I am thinking about going on a cruise, but I don't want to go unless I'll be able to hit the bar, and I am 18, so help me out please.

Answer 1

age 21.

Answer 2

Age for drinking is 21, you are still on an American ship.  At the ports, that is a different story, that depends on the soil you are on.  Gambling is 18, exept Princess ships you have to be 21,the gentlemans cousin that gambled at 17 must have done it without them checking his ID, which happens alot.

Answer 3

The drinking age on all ships that call on or depart from U.S. ports is 21 years.

Most cruiselines have a 21 limit except on some South American and European markets where an 18 year old can consume alchohol with waiver signed by the parents - the parents must be traveling with him.

Answer 4

Well, I know that you can gamble at 17. My step brother went on one like 3 months ago, he gambled. He says.

Answer 5

Many years ago, when I was 17, I drank on a cruise ship. I was on my honeymoon, we even got a free bottle of champagne. That was on the Italia line, may make a difference if it's a US ship and you're a US citizen.

Call and ask before you book.

Answer 6

yep, same as it is at home, dude.  they will even kick you out of the adult nightclub when they start serving drinks and send you to the teen club.

sorry!

Answer 7

you are all idiots. First of all if, you are traveling alone, most lines require you to be 21 (someone in your party must be 21). Depending on the cruise line you can drink beer/ wine at 18  as long as your legal guarding accompanying you on the ship signs some papers allowing it (only in international waters). But hard liquor  is still for reserved 21. NCL is one of those lines.
