Which cruise lines accommodate passengers under 21 but over 18?
Heres the deal, me and my boyfriend are looking to go on a cruise. Only problem is we are both under 21. I know a lot of cruise lines require someone over 21 to stay in each cabin. What I want to know is which cruise lines would we be able to attend, basically, which cruise lines allow 18+ to be aloud in cabins by themselves. I am also wondering which cruise lines allow 18+ year olds to drink on board. Thanks for any help!

First why cant you take any of youre parents along? I maybe wrong but I think the key is that any one in your party should be over 21 and if your parents stay in an nearby cabin youre almos on youre own.
Apart from that there is no wrong in asking the cruise line of your choice. You cant get more than a no and you can be lucky if rules arent set in stone. Johan

Ok, here is the deal. Most of the cruises that you are familiar with aren’t going to let you go by yourselves until you are 21. However, if cost isn’t an issue or if you are lucky enough to live close to one of the regional cruises, you might find one that will allow you go at 18. I’ve cut and pasted the list of cruise lines that allow 18 year olds to cruise unsupervised. Keep in mind that some of these are very expensive. Some of these are in Europe. Some of these are small regional cruise lines. However, it will give you somewhere to start. With any luck, one of them will work out for you.
The lowest minimum age requirement for any cruise line is 18. The following cruise lines require that at least one person in each cabin is 18 or older: Cruise West, Cunard, Fred. Olsen Cruise Line, Oceania, P&O Cruises, Peter Deilmann, Regent (Radisson) Seven Seas Cruises, SeaDream, Star Clippers, and Uniworld.
The following cruise lines require that either 1) All passengers in a cabin must be 18 or older, or 2) If anyone in the cabin is younger than 18 years old, someone in the cabin must be 21 or older: Disney Cruise Line, GAP Adventures, Silversea and Viking River Cruises.

Depends on the cruise lines. Lines originating in the US require 21 or older in each cabin. Drinking age is also 21.
Perhaps some european liners have differenct standards.
