Family Cruising
A National Geographic Kids survey reported that 35 percent of children ages 8 to 14 selected cruising as their most popular summer trip, beating out beaches, amusement parks, big cities, lakes and summer camp getaways.
Multi-generational and family cruising are the fastest growing segments of the cruise industry. In fact, according to Cruise Lines International Association, more than one million kids cruised with their parents in 2004.
Disney Cruise Line is a popular choice for cruising with children, but other cruise lines have added special children’s facilities and teen centers with children’s counselors providing a non-stop schedule of supervised activities for each age group.
