While the Crystal experience is mainly tailored to adults, there may be a significant number of children on board during school vacations. Crystal’s passengers tend to be older, affluent, well-educated, active, and seasoned travelers who are accustomed to and expect the finer things in life. Crystal cruises are best for discerning adults who have high expectations and want exceptional service, high-level enrichment programs, and the opportunity to explore interesting destinations. Though most passengers fall into the 55+ category, the line has made efforts to attract family (and multi-generational) groups by offering a “Kids Sail Free” program on select cruises, as well as a multi-tier program for ages 3–17.

Fees are $10 per hour for one child, $15 per hour for two children and $20 per hour for three children.

Pregnancy Policy Crystal Cruises is unable to accommodate women past their twenty-fourth week of pregnancy. Children’s Programs Children eleven and younger occupying the third berth pay fifty percent of the minimum fare when accompanied by two full-fare paying adults. Throughout the year, the line occasionally sets special promotions in which children can sail free when sharing a room with two adults. Crystal Symphony offers ten connecting staterooms and eighty-nine staterooms with a third berth available. On Crystal Serenity, there are fifty connecting staterooms and 154 staterooms with a third berth available.
