Teenagers on the Regal

[51st FMS]

Started booking a cruise on the Regal for a late 2024 December cruise.  We will have 6 teenagers ages from 14-19.  We had been on a cruise last Christmas with all of them and parents on a Carnival cruise.  The kids had a great time, dancing on the deck, the shows and just hanging out.  I'm wondering if there could be anything similar for actives.  I'm guessing that at this time of year, there will be a lot of families on this and shouldn't be a problem.

Every Christmas cruise we have been on with Princess on several different ships have been full of families with kids of all ages and there are tons of activities. There will be plenty to keep them having fun and lots of other teens with whom to hang out.

There will be lots of families onboard.  And tons of teenagers.  The only problem I forsee is that there is a gaping hole in activities for the 18-20 year old age bracket.  Too old for the kids clubs and too young to party. 

They do have a meet and greet at some point for this age group, so perhaps they can attend.  The evening entertainment will be enjoyed by all, but day entertainment may leave them looking to entertain themselves.

The kids clubs on Princess are great. Older teens (14-18) can check themselves in and out of the club; on the Sky Princess during Spring Break this year the older kids club was open until 1am. Lots for them to do like play video games, dance, or just chat. One night they had a hot tub party in a closed off area just for the kids that our daughter loved.

Just to clarify... teens up to 17.  Once they turn 18 they are no longer allowed in the kids club as they are considered adults.  They really should have a category for the 18-20 year olds with their own age appropriate activities.

Grew up going to the kids and teen activities on Princess and its part of why I love cruising so much as an adult
