Families with Children. Most cruise lines welcome children to travel on their ships, though infants and pregnant women are subject to some restrictions (click here to read more). Families booking more than one cabin may be subject to minimum age requirements for kids staying in a separate cabin. The following cruise lines require that all passengers in a cabin are 21 or older or that at least one person in the cabin is 25 or older: Carnival and Windstar Cruises. An exception may be made for underage married couples, as long as they are both 18. These couples may be asked to show proof of their marriage. The minimum age requirement for gambling is 18 on most--yet not all--cruise ships. Some lines require guests to be 21, while other lines require this only on itineraries within the United States, such as Alaska and Hawaii. The minimum age is strictly enforced; if someone underage happens to win, no payout will be given. The minimum age to consume alcohol on Royal Caribbean International ships on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand is eighteen (18).

HOWEVER: For transatlantic, transpacific, Hawaii, select South American and other selected cruises and/or CruiseTours, the infant must be at least 12 months old as of the first day of the cruise/CruiseTour. Some itineraries require children to be at least 12 months of age. Most shipboard kids' clubs will not accept those under age two, although babysitting services may be offered for an additional fee. Virtually all mass market cruise lines require guests to be at least 21 years old to sail without adult supervision. Costa Cruises requires adult supervision for those under age 25 on some itineraries. Exceptions are made for married couples and, on some lines, same-sex domestic partnerships.
