Cruising with an infant
I'm looking to go on a cruise leaving from New York but have a concern because if I go I will be traveling with a 4 month old infant.
The question is whether the cruise ships are actually equipped to handle infants of that age?
And what are some of the practical considerations I should consider when cruising with child that age?
Best Answer
Disney Cruise Line also disallows children under 6 months (or 12 months for certain longer itineraries) beginning last year.

Can you take a 2 month old on a cruise?
Infants must be at least 6 months of age at the time of embarkation in order to sail. Children must be at least 12 months of age at the time of embarkation to sail on trans-ocean crossings and remote itineraries, where there are more than 2 consecutive sea days.

Most cruise lines mandate the child be six months old or older on the day of embarkation. This means that the child must be at least that age by cruise day. If you are sailing on a transatlantic, transpacific, or a Hawaii cruise then your baby must be at least 12 months old at the time of sailing.Cruise Tips TV - Cruising With Babies
