Bathingshoes around the pool?

[sverigecruiser]

Is it correct that everyone must wear bathingshoes around the pool? (I know that bathingshoes may be the wrong word but I tried to google to get a translation and was given the suggistion thong which I thought was something completely different so I wont use that, I am sure you understand what I mean with bathingshoes.)

 

I have never heared about it before but found that information in MSCs Swedish brochure.

I've heard people on CC suggestion it would be helpful because the decks get very hot, but I haven't heard of it being required. Of course, my knowledge is strictly limited to these boards until my first MSC sailing (in 16 days!)

 

I'm bringing a pair of flip flops for the deck. May pack a thong, too [emoji41]

The information is very clear, everyone has to wear "bathingshoes" in the poolarea. They also mention that they can be bought in the shops on the ship.

Where have you seen this? I've been on Splendida and didnt use bathing shoes. Going on Divina in a few days so would be nice to know if I have to buy them

MSCs Swedish paper brochure.

 

I love to read in a "real" brochure so I don't know if they have the information on their site.

I've been on 15 or 16 MSC cruises and I've never seen this "bathing shoe" restriction. I wear flip flops because I have tender feet but most others walk around the pool area barefoot.

Never had an issue either- if I'm going from the cabin to the pool deck, I'll wear flip flops, find a sun lounger etc and wear the flip flops to the pool side as the deck gets very hot in the sun!

Thongs is the word used in Australia for Flip Flops, so the translation isn't wrong. :)

We have found that "rules" on the Divina are lightly enforced, but the on board shops are very reasonable if they choose to enforce this one.

 

We were very pleased that the flooring in the Le Sirene pool area was changed and is not as slippery as it used to be.

No that is not true.
