Back to Family Travel

Kids are welcome throughout most of the ship, with a handful of age-based limits for select pools, wellness areas, fitness spaces, and certain show seating.

A family day on board can be wonderfully simple: enjoy breakfast together, catch a show, take a pool break, and then gather for dinner after a full day of fun. A few spaces have specific guidelines regarding age requirements, and knowing them upfront helps the whole trip feel lighter:

Pools, hot tubs, steam rooms, and fitness

• SeaView Pool: guests must be 18+.

• Hot tubs and steam rooms: guests must be 16+.

• Main pool and whirlpool areas: children who are not toilet trained, including those wearing any type of diaper or swim diaper, are not permitted.

Fitness center

• Ages 12–17 may use the fitness center only with adult supervision.

• Children under 12 are not permitted in the fitness center.

World Stage shows

• Children are welcome at World Stage performances when accompanied by a parent or guardian.

• Guests must be 18+ to sit in the first two rows.

Chaperone requirements for guests under 21
