Can you drink on a cruise at 18 in Europe?

Okay, so you’re wondering if you can actually drink on a cruise in Europe when you’re just 18? I remember being 18… felt like forever ago! Anyway, yeah, good news!

So, if you’re sailing on a Royal Caribbean cruise, listen up because this is important: If that ship’s setting sail from Europe – or South America, Asia, Australia, or even New Zealand – then, generally speaking, you’re good to go at 18. The minimum drinking age on those itineraries drops down to 18. Isn’t that wild?

I always thought it was 21 no matter where you were but hey, you learn something new every day, right? Just picture yourself, out on the deck, maybe in the Mediterranean, enjoying the sunset… and a legal drink! Sounds pretty fantastic, doesn’t it? Just, you know, be responsible and have fun!

Just always double check because you never know what could change!
