Now that the kids are back in school and you know their spring
break schedules, waste no time planning and booking a spring break cruise. It’s
one of the most popular times of year for families to cruise, because everyone will
be ready for a break from school, work and winter.
If you’re tempted to wait until after the winter holidays to book
a spring break cruise, don’t! Your top choices for cruise dates, itineraries, accommodations
and flight schedules are likely to be gone by then. Reserve now to secure your
top choices, based on the ages and interests of your kids and the type of
cruise experience you’re looking for.
Here are some things to consider:
If you have elementary school kids who like to play and socialize
with other kids, look at cruise lines with strong “kid’s club” programs. These
programs, supervised by trained counselors, keep kids active and happy – which
gives you some time to relax on your own, too. Disney Cruises, Royal Caribbean Cruise
Line and Norwegian Cruise Line are among the lines that you should look at.
If you have tweens and teenagers, look at ships that offer special
teen-only spaces, such as lounges where they can hang out, play games, listen
to music and dance. In addition to the cruise lines mentioned above, some
Princess Cruise Line ships have both indoor and outdoor spaces dedicated to
teens. (One more note: given teens’ love of social media, it may be important
to pick a cruise line with good Wi-Fi access.)
If your children prefer to spend time with the family, kid’s clubs
and activities may be less important to you. You could consider additional cruise
lines that offer plenty of activities for families to enjoy together, including
Holland America Line and Celebrity Cruises.
