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. We do not offer individual baby sitting.

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.
