Questions concerning Explorer of the seas for young adults?

Question

We are considering a group cruise for a family celebration. I would be taking my 19 and 21 year old children.

1. What is there for them to do onboard?

2. Would the 19 year old be served alcohol?

3. Are there usually long waits for the activities or is the ship generally not too crowded?

4. Would cell phones work to keep in touch with one another?

Thanks for any and all responses.

Answer 1

1) Theres no groups for them to join they at end at 18

Answer 3

There is a "teen club" on the ship that they will spend 24 hours a day in - believe me.  Adults aren't allowed in it!  

No alcohol will be served to them.  Sometimes the cell phones work - it depends on where you are.  Some ports you just can't get any signals.  They do offer walkie talkie type things on the ship though - that you can rent for the week.  

I've been on the Explorer, it's a great ship!!

hello i just came back from explorer of the seas there is alot to do they have basketball dodgeball tourmnents and soccer there is a card room lots of barsand good shows. all you can eat food. I have no idea about the alcohol i am only 13. no waits at all you can do what ever you want really there is rock climbing i rang the bell at the top. With the cell phones you could use them talking around the ship i would not but if you want to. If you are talking about calling back home don't just don't trust me for 1 call it is like 100-200$ so i would not. hope this helps have a great trip!

Answer 5

There are always kids on the ship and the teen programs dont offer any group for kids over 18. Anyow, there are so many activities and you can get off the ship and hang out around the pool and hang out in the night clubs and you can usually meet some pretty cool people and everything.

The 19 year old could drink alcohol if you signed a waiver saying that they could otherwise no. The kids under 21 and minors all get the same colored card and then adults get another color I believe.

The activities arent usually crowded but some of them are and it just really depends but the ship is so big that I doubt they would be.

Cell Phones work in some areas and some cruise lines have contracts with the cruise lines but I would just think that walkie talkies are more more reliable and you would probably have to pay roaming and you cant usually get the best signal so I would just use something else.
