When it comes to taking a baby on a cruise it may seem like a daunting experience, but just like every other holiday, it pays to research, plan and be organized. To start with, all cruise lines have minimum age restrictions, and these do vary greatly.
Disney Cruise Line will accept infants from 12 weeks, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Norwegian Cruise Line, Holland America, Princess and Carnival will take babies over six months. You may find however, for Transatlantic, Hawaii and South American cruises, children are required to be aged at least one. It is always best to check with your cruise agent, in order to get the most up to date information.

Whenever I read articles about going on cruises, there's one thing everyone leaves out! Since I've spoken on many cruises, I've had lots of opportunities to pack and prepare, and I don't want you to forget this one thing.

In the early 1800's, the Mississippi River was conquered through the use of steamboats, also called Sternwheelers. Before the steam-powered riverboat, flatboats were the transportation of choice for navigating the Mississippi River, but a journey from St. Louis, Missouri to New Orleans, Louisiana could take several months to complete. The greatest shortcoming of the flatboat was that it could only travel downstream, but not upstream.
With the introduction of steamboats to the Mississippi River, shippers were finally able to move cargo and people upstream, without the use of horses. Most flatboats - called "boats that never came back" - were used to transport cargo and people downstream, then the boats were disassembled and carried by wagon upstream for reassembly and another trip.
