Cruise age limits?

Travel Info
Is there an age limit to watch those shows with the dancers? I am planning to go to the Ectasy from Carnival and am going with a 13 yr old and a 9 yr old. Will I be able to keep them with me to watch the shows? People say they are the best attractions on the ship.

Travel Tips

I think that's OK. Most of the song and dance shows on cruise ships are family shows. If there is an age limit, it will be posted on your daily cruise bulletin that the ship's crew prepare for all passengers every morning. Also cruise lines (especially "family" lines like Carnival) have kids' programs which are set up a little like day camp with counselors organizing different activities depending on age group. So don't worry about your kids, they'll be fine.

We took 19 people on the Ecstasy in 2005.

There are no age limits set by Carnival. However, be aware that the dancer's costumes are Vegas style. Nothing topless but many of the costumes so off the dancers best assets...

There were several wardrobe "malfunctions" during the show we attended with our 11 and 9 year old. That was the highlight of the show for them!

There is a topless sunbathing deck on the Ecstasy but my brothers told me the only thing topless on that deck was the old, fat bald guys!

You may want to consider getting a pair of the 2-way radios to keep in touch with the kiddos while on board the ship. It prevents missed check-in sessions, etc. It gave our girls freedom but us piece of mind while they were enjoying the teen events. You can get them at Wal-Mart, Target, Radio Shack.

The kids are not allowed in the casino, even with you.

Allow plenty of time for boarding. The port of Galveston can be a zoo.

Take plenty of $1, 5 and 10 to shop in the open air market. You can get some great deals in Progresso.
Some of the shows are ok. Some are not. If you read your Carnival Capers, it will tell you what shows are for adults only.
