jimtheperson Posted December 29, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Hi Everyone, Sorry if this is answered elsewhere, but I am a confused newbie :eek: . . . our son will not be potty trained by the time of the trip (18 months old) do all cruise lines forbid him from the pools? Are any ships or lines exceptions? Thanks very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerif Posted December 29, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Disney ships as well as RCI's Freedom and Oasis class ships all have "splash" zones for kids who are not potty trained. That's about it. No ships have actual "pools" for the diaper set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimtheperson Posted December 29, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks so much Geri!!! this is great info. We are leaning resort for now, with the idea that we will go on a cruise in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Manatee Mom Posted December 29, 2010 #4 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Any of the Carnival ships with waterworks, also have toddler play areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinmama06 Posted December 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Any of the Carnival ships with waterworks, also have toddler play areas. Sorry, but no they don't. :( Carnival is still claiming that those areas are for potty trained toddlers only. I know, it's really confusing. This is from the Carnival Site...(link below) -Due to United States Public Health (USPH) Regulations, we do not allow children in diapers, in swimming diapers or those not toilet-trained in the Splash Park. https://www.goccl.com/irman/bookccl/shipboard_knowledge/Pool_WaterslidePolicies.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patseacruiser Posted December 30, 2010 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Jim - check with the resort before you pay too because a lot of resorts won't let swim diapers in the pools either. It's a health issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exj132 Posted December 30, 2010 #7 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Is this actually enforced onboard Carnival ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinmama06 Posted December 30, 2010 #8 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Is this actually enforced onboard Carnival ships? Well it depends on who you ask. In my experience, no. We didn't see it enforced at all. Which annoyed me because I wish Carnival did enforce it. I was on cruises where the pools were shut down for cleaning because someone had pooped in the pool. Then we couldn't use them. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderingfool Posted December 31, 2010 #9 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Some Costa ships also have a splash pool for toddlers. They aren't very fancy, but we enjoyed the one on our ship (Costa Atlantica). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
