Height requirements on Norwegian getaway/breakaway water slides


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi, we are getting ready to cruise on norwegian getaway. We have 6 children between 7 and 10 in our group. And they are all wondering if they would be able to get on the water rides. Two of them are right about 48 inches tall, the rest are taller.

I do not believe there is a height requirement. There is a weight requirement of 99 pounds for the free fall slide.

I think there is, pretty sure it was 48 inches, but I may be confusing the slides with the rope course requirements. I agree that for the free fall slides there is a weight requirement.

There are 5 slides on the Breakaway. The open Blue one and the twisting enclosed Yellow and Pink ones have a 40" min. The two Freefall slides are 48".

 

The entrance to the Splash Academy on Decks 12 and 13 are right outside the forward elevators.

 

Enjoy!!!

 

Found this, not sure of its accuracy :)
