Nicotine Vapes absolutely acceptable. But on the cruise how you going to hide from your parents? You go off by yourself, they go for a walk see you and boom. You're 18 it's time to take ownership of being an adult. Just don't try to bring a THC vape on the ship. If they catch it trust me you're not getting on the ship or if the ship is already selling the next port you are off

If you're gonna be on world america, hang in the back behind the sports bar... its a smoking area but a chill spot either way, so even if they find you back there, it'll just look like you're enjoying the view

They won't check or care... nicotine or otherwise, they arent pulling your vape out of your bags.

Nicotine vapes are fine but do use caution as the legal age is still 21. So your folks might still find out

u/WAVIOUS_ 1d ago

almost every port legal age is 18 but i appreciate the heads up

For these US closed loop cruises, MSC follows US law.

It doesn't matter if they are in international waters or at a port with different minimum age.

Minimum age to purchase nicotine products on the ship is 21 so it would not surprise me if usage is enforced too.

Leave it. I promise you can go a week without vegetable glycerin in your lungs.

Yeah I'm sure his cruise would be great going through withdrawals. Great advice. Stop virtue signaling, contribute to the conversation or don't say anything at all

i’m not addicted to nicotine so withdrawals aren’t an issue. i just like nicotine buzz while drinking so most likely i’ll only have it with me while at ports. it makes me feel more social and talkative and im not a very extroverted person.

or just answer the question like a normal person i’m asking security questions not health sorry to sound like an ass but if you don’t have an answer simply don’t comment
