I think the answer is that as long as you are in Mexican water then yes you can drink. If i was you i would try my best to find out because i would want to drink if i was there.

The legal drinking age IN Mexico is 18. The laws/rules of the cruise ship will coincide with the port of call, in this case, America. You cannot drink on the ship, but can once you hit Mexico.

U can in Mexico, as for the ship Id call and ask. They would know for sure.
I think 18 should be legal age anyway. If your old enough to give your life for your country you should be able to drink a beer

In the US the legal drinking age is 21 and that's on land or in US waters. So on the ship no, maybe when you cross into Mexican waters you can. Call the travel agency or cruise line and ask to be sure.

Since the drinking age in America is 21, I would assume drinking age on the ship would be the same. But I'd ask about the drinking policies and age on the ship just to be sure. ;)

The legal drinking age on board is based on the legal drinking age in the country where the ship is registered

Usually on the ship they will hold you to the standard of being 21. Yet, once you hit Mexico.... no drinking age that I have ever seen enforced.

You won,t be able to drink on the ship as the legal age on-board is 21.If the ship is listed to the USA..

I actually think the ship requires 21 yrs of age, check the cruise line website it will tell you.

Actually on the ship it depends where the ship is listed out of. A lot of other countries have temperance ages lower then the U.S. Additionally, in international waters, its up to the actual vessel.
