Norwegian Cruise Line

Junior Cruisers

For children and teens, each NCL vessel offers Kid's Crew program of supervised entertainment for young cruisers ages 2 to 17. Younger children are split into three groups, ages 2 to 5, 6 to 9, and 10 to 12; activities range from storytelling, games, and arts and crafts to dinner with counselors, pajama parties, and treasure hunts.

Evening group "Port Play" is available in the children's area to accommodate parents booked on shore excursions. Babysitting services are available for a fee. Parents whose children are not toilet trained are issued a beeper to alert them when diaper changing is necessary. Children under age two cruise free with their parents, and there's no minimum age for infants.

For teens age 13 to 17, options include sports, pool parties, teen disco, movies, and video games. Some ships have their own cool clubs where teens hang out in adult-free zones.
