asalligo Posted September 1, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Is this new or has it just never been enforced? Someone has posted this on a facebook page as a new rule. I think I remember this being in place before Covid. I think it is just not enforced. Minor Guest Policy | Carnival Cruise Line Youth CurfewGuests 17 years of age and under who are not accompanied by an adult in their traveling party, 21 years of age or older, must be clear of all public areas by 1:00am each evening unless involved in a Club 02 or Circle C teen activity.

imacruiser99 Posted September 1, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Carnival is trying to "curtail" their reputation lately. Folks cruising today think the entire ship has turned into a baby sitting service (I know 18 year old's do not need baby sitting), but parental control is still required. I am just wondering if the same folks let their school age children wander the streets at night back home, or is this just because they are in a "confined" area, all is well. The concept of common courtesy to your neighbor seems have gone by the wayside no matter where you go today. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldubs Posted September 1, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Seems like I recall a curfew when we took the kids several years ago. But I'm kind of fuzzy, so not sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klfrodo Posted September 2, 2022 #7 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Dang kids these days! Where have I heard that before? Oh yea. I heard my grandparents say it. I heard my parents say it. As a parent, I probably said it. As a grandparent, I don't say it. I think todays kids are much better behaved, more mature, and more responsible than any of the previous generations. How can they not be! Every move they make is recorded, on a camera, and/or posted on social media. Maybe some of us prudes need to remember back when we were kids. I thank my lucky stars every day that social media wasn't around when I was a kid testing boundaries. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why we have the problems with the kids nowadays that we did not have in the previous generations. Making excuses for kids running around at 1am is another reason why we have the craziness with the kids of this generation. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lazydayz Posted September 2, 2022 #10 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Fairly sure it is new. And I am so glad they did this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously eff those kids 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennythenose Posted September 2, 2022 #12 Share Posted September 2, 2022 If it was a rule before I was never aware of it and my kids are now 23 and 19. I’m a big time rule follower so I think I would have known about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making excuses for kids running around at 1am is another reason why we have the craziness with the kids of this generation. We had kids spitting on people, damaging Carnival property, bullying other kids, stealing property, one kid went missing for two days in our group, another one got drugged and had to go to the medical center, i even saw a girl throw her lollipop at a security guard. As much as i agree with the curfew that's not going to do much. A group of kids bullied my friends 11 year old (who is also handicapped) by making fun of him, beating him up, videoing him and locking him in a bathroom. When security went to the parents they got the "my kids would never do that" routine. This is learned behavior and is a product of terrible parenting. A 1am curfew is not gonna stop bad parenting 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray98 Posted September 2, 2022 #17 Share Posted September 2, 2022 1am isn't going to fix much. Most of the bad behaviour I witnessed was 10:30 to midnight. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drazil65 Posted September 2, 2022 #18 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (I know 18 year old's do not need baby sitting) I know plenty of 18 yr old's that need more babysitting than 4 yr olds!!! Nothing good ever happens after midnight, especially for teens... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely did not enforce this on our June Magic cruise. Kids were out all hours - definitely until at least 2:30 a.m. running up and down our hallway. The last day of the cruise they posted a security guard outside the teen club. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not enforced on either of my cruises, but I did see it listed. With the crew shortages on both of my cruises, I doubt they had enough people to attempt to enforce curfew.

mz-s Posted September 2, 2022 #25 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Nobody is going to take these words seriously until people start getting kicked off the ship at the next stop. When you're stuck in Nassau and have to find your own way home because your kids are heathens or you got caught with drugs in your suitcase, word will spread quickly that the wild west is gone. 21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
