RoLoHa Posted December 27, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I searched and found no results...my last cruise did not include kids so I never checked out the slides. Questions: is there a minimum age/size requirement, is there a charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted December 27, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 27, 2015 We have only sailed on the MSC Preziosa which has the Vertigo water slide. There was no charge. My kids went on it. The minimum height was 120cm. They made you sign some form for your kids. I went on it too. This is my video.

RoLoHa Posted December 27, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Thanks! My granddaughters are 10 and 13 and this looks like something they would love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted December 27, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Thanks! My granddaughters are 10 and 13 and this looks like something they would love! I saw many kids on the slide and some were quite young. But yes, it was a 120cm height requirement, and my younger kid is barely above 120cm. They had this signboard for measuring the height and my younger kid had to stand there and get measured. Have fun!!

RoLoHa Posted December 27, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted December 27, 2015 But younger than teen? 9-10? No one has been sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaRob Posted December 27, 2015 #10 Share Posted December 27, 2015 But younger than teen? 9-10? No one has been sure? The height limit is 120 cm or 1.2m which is just under 4 feet tall so that is how big your kids or grandkids have to be to ride which for most kids is in that 8 plus range but sometimes younger if they are bigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubreysmom09 Posted December 28, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Thinking of an impromptu cruise for spring break, and one of the questions I was going to ask. Thanks for the answers!! I have a 47.5in 6 year old that loves waterslides. She will be very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iluvcruising2 Posted December 28, 2015 #13 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Thanks for the pictures. Other than the Preziosa, I am not familiar with any other MSC ship. Looks like the water slide on the Divina is quite different from the Preziosa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the water slide on the Divina is quite different from the Preziosa. Someone posted a video on YouTube about the Divina (12/5/15 Caribbean cruise) ... my wife said the OP said there is a charge to ride the water slide? :eek: Can anyone confirm or deny?

RoLoHa Posted December 28, 2015 Author #15 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I think I saw same video and why I asked about fee.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy-Catherine Posted December 29, 2015 #16 Share Posted December 29, 2015 We were on the Davina in July and you had to sign a waiver and get a special band to allow kids on the slide. They said it was for 8yrs+ but allowed my girls (6) to go it if we signed the waiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that I ever heard of a fee for a water slide ... not sure if the person filming the video knew what she was talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMJack Posted January 1, 2016 #20 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Was there a fee for the slide? I don't know that I ever heard of a fee for a water slide ... not sure if the person filming the video knew what she was talking about. there was no fee for the waterslide.... but it's one of the worst waterslides i've been on --- it's not "steep" enough --there was no speed/momentum. I stopped half way through. I usually like waterslides, but i didn't bother doing this one more than once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
