MINOR GUESTS

Guests under the age of 21 must be accompanied by a parent, grandparent or guardian 25 years or older in the same stateroom.

Minimum age for sailing will be generally 6 months and 12 months for Transatlantic, Hawaii and South American cruises.

Please note that adult guests are responsible for the safety and behavior of their minor guests.

Guests under the age of 21 staying at any hotel in conjunction with Carnival’s Fly Aweigh® program or vacation packages may be required to be accompanied by a guest 21 years or older in the same room as per each hotel’s policy. Permission for minor guests to fly unaccompanied is determined by the airlines as per each airline’s rules. Guests should check with their scheduled airline for eligibility. Carnival assumes no responsibility for guests under the age of 21 traveling unaccompanied by air.

Our Camp Carnival®, Circle "C" and Club O2 programs features supervised activities for children 2-17.

Please note that guests under 16 are not permitted in the spa and guests under 18 are not allowed in the casino.

When traveling with a minor and both parents/legal guardians are not cruising, we strongly recommend bringing an original signed letter from the absent parent/legal guardian authorizing the minor to travel with you. This will expedite processing by the Department of Homeland Security. Please note that a notarized letter to this effect is required if debarking with children in Mexico. 

In addition to the above requirements, all guests 16 years of age or older must provide an official photo ID

PREGNANCY POLICY

Pregnant women are only allowed to sail if pregnant for 24 completed weeks or less at time of cruise disembarkation. All pregnant women are required to produce a physician’s letter stating that mother and baby are in good health, fit to travel and the pregnancy is not high-risk. The letter must also include the estimated date of delivery (EDD).
