I have a female student that would like to take a cruise for her 18th birthday with another female (20). Does anyone know if Carnival allows this? Parents have ok'd it.

Nope.......she is about 17 years too late........

 

 

How old do you have to be to travel alone?

 

Guests are required to be 21 years old (on embarkation day) to travel. Guests under the age of 21 must be accompanied in the same stateroom by a parent or guardian 25 or older. The exceptions Carnival will make to this policy are:

 

Married minor couple - The booking must be documented that the couple is married. The couple must have proof of marriage at embarkation or they will be denied boarding without the benefit of a refund.

 

Domestic Partners/Same-Sex Union minor couple - The booking must be documented that the couple are legal Domestic Partners/Same-Sex Union. The couple must have legal proof of partnership/union at embarkation or they will be denied boarding without the benefit of a refund.

 

Guest ages will be verified at embarkation. Guests not conforming to this policy will be denied boarding and assessed a 100% cancellation penalty. NO exceptions will be made at embarkation.

 

The Group policy is slightly different because of stricter group terms and conditions including mandatory chaperones, damage deposits and other considerations.

so are you asking if an 18 yr old and 20 yr old can travel alone on a cruise?

You might want to check with a TA. They could probably direct you to any cruise lines with a lower age minimum.

Nope:confused: my DD is 18 and her BF is 23 they cannot go without us:cool:

I believe Princess has a more liberal policy. I suggest that you might check their policy in this regard.
