None of the popular cruise lines like royal caribbean, princess, norwegian etc. do that. You have to pay for kids. especially teenagers lol. they might not charge for 5 and under tho. but ive never heard of a cruise that allows under 18 for free

NONE!!! All of the cruise lines charge for all of the people in your party, regardless of age, even infants. However, the price of your cabin will be based on double occupancy for the first two people and any additional people in the cabin, regardless of age, will pay a much lower price that is usually in the range of about 50 percent of the fare for the first two people. So if you and spouse pay $1000 each for a 7-day cruise then you will likely pay $500 each for any additional people in your cabin.

On occasion the cruise lines will run a special when they charge a much lower rate for the 3rd, 4th and 5th persons in your cabin; sometimes as low as $100 each. But the normal is about 50 percent.

For example, here's what Royal Caribbean has on its web site about fares for children:

" Because Royal Caribbean cruise vacations offer so many special activities for children, we do not usually offer discounted rates. However, anyone staying in the same stateroom with two full-fare paying guests will pay a special third and/or fourth guest rate. So if you intend on having your children stay in your stateroom, their rate may be lower. "

If you want to save money and get a lower price you must either book the specials that all of the cruise lines offer, or book well in advance and that means like a year in advance or more. If you are thinking of cruising in March 2009 you will likely pay a premium price per person unless you find a special.

You're thinking of the Holiday Inn. Kids stay free.

I'd like to know what two you found that allow kids 18 and under to sail free. No doubt a high class operation.

Every cruise line I am aware of, charges for all people in a stateroom, even babies. They might get a reduced rate, but it ain't free.

Usually the first two people in a stateroom pay full price and the 3rd and 4th person in the sharing the same cabin as the two full fare paying guests get some sort of discount.

I booked Holland America because my kid were half off. That was the best I found. (In Oct) I looked a lot before I found even that.
