YOUR HEALTH IS OUR PRIORITY

We’re all in this together. Here are some things to keep in mind for the health and safety of everyone onboard.

Wash Up!

The best way to prevent colds, flu and gastrointestinal illnesses- such as Norovirus- is to wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds after bathroom breaks and before eating.

Remember to Practice Healthy Habits

It’s easy to do your part to protect yourself and everyone else onboard, wash your hands often and thoroughly.

Safety First with Swim Vests.

Play it safe at the pool, swimming smart and looking cool. Complimentary swim vests are available in 3 sizes designed for children ages 4 to 12. Swim vests are located near the towel station on Deck 11.

GOOD TO KNOW

Arcade Charges

Children’s SeaPass cards can be activated directly at the arcade even if those accounts have been deactivated for charging privileges. Please see the Guest Services Staff for further information.

Beat the Rush

Avoid lining up to settle your SeaPass account. Register your credit card at Guest Services, Deck 5 and no checkout will be required.

Children in Diapers

Due to public health regulations, children in diapers, swim diapers, pull-ups, or who are not completely toilet trained are not allowed in the pools, and whirlpools.

Children’s Personal Flotation Devices (PFD)

For the safety and wellbeing of children, children’s swimming pool personal flotation devices are available free of charge at the pool deck areas. Personal Flotation Devices (PFD) are for use onboard the Explorer of the Seas and cannot be taken off the ship.
