All Included Classic Drink Package -Mediterranean -19 year old

[32cute2me]

Does anybody know if Celebrity gives 18-21 year olds the Classic Alcohol or the Classic Non-Alcohol drink package with the All Included in Europe, as the legal drinking age is 18?

According to Celebrity’s website, the drinking age for all ships leaving from North America is 21. The rest of the world is 18.

Right, so I should assume they will be giving her the Classic alcohol package?  I read elsewhere that Celebrity doesn't give alcohol packages to those under 21 but it's possible the writer was not thinking of cruises outside of North America.  

 

We have a responsible 19 year old.  We just want to know what to expect.

Did you read this on the Celebrity website? Their FAQ's say clearly that the drinking age is 18 outside of North America.  I don't see anything saying they don't sell them alcohol packages

No, didn't see anything on the Celebrity website specifically regarding the drink packages for under 21 so when I read the cruise critic post on another thread stating they didn't give alcohol packages to under 21,  it made me question it.  Maybe eventually someone with first-hand knowledge can answer the question. Thank you.

It's a good question.  You could try emailing or phoning for some clarity on the matter.  Someone may come on with the answer, but it could be a rare case.

From the Always Included T&C's....

 

The minimum drinking age for purchasing or consuming alcoholic beverages on Celebrity Cruises ships sailing from North America and Canada is 21 years at the time of sailing, and elsewhere is 18 years to comply with applicable laws. Where the eligible guest in a stateroom is less than the applicable minimum age on the initial sailing date, a Classic Non-alcoholic beverage package will be provided to this guest instead.

Thank you!  That answers my question!

My daughter was 18 and had a classic package. No problems.
