Rare CNDKangaroo Posted January 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Does the Carnival Miracle have pool life jackets for kids? If not, what do you suggest we bring for our 5 year old for the pool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry's Girls Posted January 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) The only life jackets provided are for emergencies - you're not allowed to remove them for the pool or port. I always brought our own jackets for the pools and ports. They're unfortunately very bulky, but thankfully light. Especially while at sea, the pools can be chaotic/have a lot of movement, so even a kid who's a good swimmer might feel more comfortable in one - especially since there's often no shallow end, except in the kid's pools.

Zeta3 Posted January 19, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 19, 2017 They had them by the towel hut on Sensation and splendor but I don't know if it is fleet wide or if they are on the miracle as I haven't sailed on her yet.

TupeloHoney Posted January 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2017 If you have to bring your own, I'd suggest a puddle jumper. My kids loved them. I always threw it in the bag with the car seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 19, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2017 There are some tot swimsuits that have "built in " floatation vest. You will not be allowed to use the ship's lifejackets...they are only for emergencies! You can get water wings, or a small, lightweight floatation vest to bring with you for pool and beach.

Zeta3 Posted January 19, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 19, 2017 On ships that provide life jackets for the pool there are 2 different types of life jackets on board. The life jackets in the cabins are for emergency use only. The life jackets at the pool towel hut are for use in the pool and they have multiple sizes from small child to adult. Here is the information from carnival but I am. It sure the actual ship list is up to date https://help.carnival.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3603 Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry's Girls Posted January 19, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2017 SO sorry for my incorrect information - I hate when people post when they don't know, and I just did it!! I didn't realize any of the ships were providing life jackets for the pool - that's great. And I'll refrain from commenting on that which I'm not sure about!

Trust me had I not actually seen them one day onboard my advice would have been the same as yours. I still think if a child needs floatation help puddle jumpers or life jackets should be brought from home since you definitely can't count on them being available at beaches and pools on shore.

There is a rack with three different size lifejackets to borrow near one of the towel stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
