I know how how frustrating it is to be told one thing from someone and an entirely different thing by someone else...and from the same company!!!! They need to be trained the same things! You are better off safe than sorry by having those parent consent forms signed. It took my daughter and her friend on a 3 day cruise along with my other daughter and some friends a couple years back. The older girls had just graduated high school and my daughter was 18 but her friend wasn't. I was not required to bring a note from a parent. However, I remember reading a review of the same ship I was on and someone said they were actually not even allowed to board the ship BECAUSE they didn't have the consent form from a parent and the kids were similar in age to my situation. She was extremely upset that she missed her cruise for this reason. I really hope you are able to get this resolved soon. Maybe you just need to cancel. Book your cruise for you and your child and give the info to other parents and let them get their kids booked on their own. Good luck again!
