18-year-olds

[juls9680]

Are there any cruise lines that will allow 18-year-olds to book by themselves? What if they are accompanied by a 17-year-old?

 

Thanks!

I don't think ANY of the "mass market" lines allow an 18 year old to cruise without someone at LEAST 21 (and in some cases, 25!) And certainly not with a 17 year old!

 

The exception may be if they are married....and documentation must be provided....

None of those that cater to the US market

You need someone at least 21, (and maybe up to 25) to book a room.

Most accurate response to the OP :D

Disney and P&O allow 18 year olds to book without someone older. But not a 17 year old. 17 year olds generally have to travel with someone 21 or more.

The cruiselines I've looked through all require someone at least 21 (but "generally" 25) in the same cabin/on the same reservation with someone 18.

Disney, Cunard and Crystal allow 18 year olds to book a cruise without parents or guardian. The 17 year old will not be allowed to cruise alone with the 18 year old. But, Disney is hardly a ship for teens alone, Cunard is very expensive and not geared towards anyone under 30, and Crystal is the most expensive of them all, with most of their cruises starting at over $3,500 per person, and they do not have anything for teens---no club, no drinking or gambling at all.
