LuLu, here's the policy of some US cruise lines:

On Princess, Carnival, & HAL, the drinking age is 21 on board the ship no matter where you embark.
On RCI, Celebrity, & Azamara, if you embark in a port in Europe or South America, guests 18 - 20 must have a waiver signed by their parents accompanying them allowing them to drink alcohol.
otherwise, it's 21 when embarking from a US port.

On NCL, here is their waiver policy:

With the exception of Alaska and Hawaii itineraries, (Where you must be 21 years of age to consume or purchase alcohol of any kind) NCL permits guests between the ages of eighteen (18) and twenty (20) to purchase and personally consume wine and beer while on NCL ships with the consent of an accompanying parent or legal guardian on the same sailing once the vessel is outside the US state territorial waters (3 miles out
