Best NCL Ship for Toddlers

[JsEscape2]

Dear Tennant 

We took our grandkids, 7, 5, and 2. on the NCL Dawn to Bermuda.  It has a great "water park" for little kids aft.  Slides, shower, wading pool.  Kids loved it.  Not as involved as the water slides for the bigger kids.  Easy, not so scary.

I can guess why they are looking at NCL over DCL. We looked at doing DCL, but I didn't want to sell a lung, kidney, and take a second mortgage on my home.

Yes, we are fully aware of the vaccine requirements.  Our children are/will be fully potty trained when we cruise.

 

I would hope so, they will probably all be at school by the time NCL allow unvaccinated children onboard.

It’s more likely that all children will be able to get vaccinated and NCL will require it.

I doubt toddlers will be vaccinated any time soon, if ever, there is a strong argument for vaccinating school children but not for a toddler who won't be going anywhere to get infected.

 

It's down to Ballance of risk and toddlers represent almost zero risk.

Trials should be done by the end of this year, ready to go in 2022. My friend’s granddaughter had Covid at age 1 snd was sick.

My grandkids loved Escape and Bliss.

Lots to do, great water slides, etc.

When they were babies, they went to Guppies on Escape when the adults went to specialty restaurants.

Not to create.

However, we see toddlers going out daily with parents to many places.

I don't believe toddlers are immune to C19.

Agree.  My nephew is 2 1/2, goes to daycare and has had more COVID tests than I have, luckily all negative.  Preschool gets shut down for a week if a kid tests positive.

In more developed countries we follow the science.

The aft kids water parks on Dawn and Star have been removed and replaced with Spice H2O.  The water slide near the main pool has also been removed on these ships.
