FUN FOR EVERYONE.
This is the family vacation you’ve been dreaming of. A place where you can
unwind while your kids are just winding up. A place where you can all agree on
what to do next.Welcome to NCL and NCL America’s Kid’s Crew™ and Teen’s Crew™
programs. They are custom designed for toddlers, teens and everyone in between.
KID’S CREW AND TEEN’S CREW
How do we do it? Every exciting moment is filled with age-appropriate
entertainment in mind. For kids from age 2-12, we offer everything from arts and
crafts to pajama parties. Teen’s Crew, for age 13-17, has options like pool
parties, a teen disco, a video arcade and much more. Now, you can enjoy a
hot-stone massage, a yoga class or a cocktail by the pool while they’re having
the time of their lives. But don’t think of Kid’s Crew as babysitting – there’s
very little sitting involved. This program is active, energetic, educational
and, most importantly, fun.Whether your kids are at our elaborate children’s
facilities, taking a dip in one of our pools, or doing any other activity, they
will be under the constant supervision of our carefully chosen staff of youth
counselors from leading universities and organizations. Each team counselor
attends a special training course on safety, communication skills and
confidence-building.
NO WORRIES
It’s easy for you to relax when you know your kids are safe and happy. In fact,
safety is of paramount importance to our staff. Each child’s name, stateroom
number, allergies, medications and lifeboat station numbers are written on the
back of their Kid’s Crew ID bracelets. Teens are free to come and go as they
please, and children 12 years and younger are not allowed to leave the program
unless picked up by a parent. And when the day is done, you’ll find our family
suites and connecting and adjacent staterooms are perfect for family
togetherness and privacy.
