Can the birthday person's shirt be different?

Yes. Every shirt is personalized on its own, so the birthday person can have their name or “Birthday Girl” while everyone else's says “Birthday Crew”, all on the same design.

What sizes do you offer?

Every birthday cruise design comes as a baby bodysuit (0–24 months), toddler tee (2T–5T), youth tee (S–XL), adult unisex tee (S–4XL), women's V-neck (S–2XL) and long-sleeve tee (S–3XL).

When should we order?

Two to three weeks before you sail. Shirts are made to order within 1–2 business days, then delivery takes 2–6 business days, and that leaves time to wash and pack them.

Q: How much text can I add?

Up to 24 characters on the birthday cruise squad and crew designs. The “Cruisin' My Way” birthday design takes a name or line (up to 33 characters) plus the age as a number. Every design can also be ordered with no text.

Why birthday cruises get their own shirts

A cruise ship is full of groups, and on a birthday cruise you want everyone to know whose party it is. Matching shirts do that on embarkation day, at the port and at the birthday dinner. They also make the photos: twenty people in the same shirt reads as one celebration, not twenty tourists.

Milestone birthdays at sea

Big birthdays (30th, 40th, 50th, 60th and beyond) are a natural fit for a cruise. Put the number on the shirt: "50th Birthday Cruise" or the age alone in large type. For a milestone, consider two shirts: a matching group shirt for embarkation day and a second one for the formal-night photo or a shore excursion.

Getting the group's shirts right

Decide the main line together. Everyone's shirt says the same thing ("Birthday Cruise Squad 2026") so the group reads as one.
Give the birthday person their own line. Use the text field for their name, "Birthday Girl" or "The Birthday Boy".

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What should a birthday cruise shirt say?

Most combine “Birthday Cruise” or “Birthday Squad” with the year and the birthday person's name or age, for example “Maria's 50th Birthday Cruise 2026”. The birthday person often wears a slightly different line, such as “Birthday Girl”.
