Carnival Cruise lines is a better option for singles or a younger crowd seeing as they have a nude sun bathing area :S probably not what your parents want! Disney is a good one but a little spendy, I'd recommend Princess. They offer something for the parents, and have specific age group activites for the kids, so that a 13 year old isnt having to do finger painting with a 5 yr old! They also have really cool parties for the teenagers too. They have kareoke, slumber parties, dance parties etc. And the little kids can play with different sea animals in their group and other stuff too. All while the parents enjoy the casino etc. Plus princess isn't PACKED to death like carnival. So there is still room to breathe for everybody!

I have been on several and by far the best is Princess Cruise Lines. However, it really depends on what type of cruise you are looking for. Disney is great for young families. Carnival is great for young singles and those on a budget. Norwegian is okay if you prefer sight seeing to cruising. Princess and Holland are the best if you want to have a variety of activities, outstanding service, excellent ships and the opportunity to enjoy the cruise experience, not just shore excursions.

Well I have been on over 30 cruises in my lifetime...I'll go through every cruise line that I have been on, and explain it to you:
Carnival isn't such a great idea for your family because of the young one...carnival is more of a party ship...there is a lot more drinking, and believe it or not, people overboard...i personally don't think that it is one of the best cruise lines for families, but if you want to put your little sibling in the child center, then you can "party" more...Here are some links to help you:

Now I have been on Royal Carribean, and I think that this is perfect for you and the rest of your family...there are many activites onboard, such as ice skating, rock walls, amazing shows, great kids/ teen programs, exctiting games, great port of call, and great rates...I have been on over 15 rccl cruises, and this cruise line is my favorite:

Celebrity Cruises are my second favorite cruise line...it is exactly like rccl except they dont have the ice skating and rock walls...the shows are fantastic...the food incredible, the activites for kids of all ages, adults also...the pools and pool side games are amazing...it is a little bit cheaper than rccl, but has similar itineraries, just from some different ports:

Now Disney cruises are also perfect for your family, the only downside is that it is very expensive...there are so many different varieties of cruises such as a land and sea, 3 and 4 night cruises, 7 night carribean, and several mexican riviera cruises..the activites onbaord are endless...jump in the pool, catch a game in the oceanears lab, play bingo, watch the fantastic night shows, eat and endledd amount of food...and especially travel the several different places around the world, including Disney's prviate island, castaway cay:

Carnival Cruise lines is a family liner.
Disney is suited to little kids but is also family oriented.

I've been on 23 cruises to date (my hubby is a travel agent)... and the winner, hands down, is DISNEY CRUISE LINES.
You will ALL have an AMAZING, unforgettable trip.
