KevInPitt Posted July 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 2, 2015 The FAQ says the following about Flotation Devices: For the comfort of all our guests, rafts, tubes and floatation devices other than those used as life preservers (water wings) cannot be used in the swimming pools on board" It would seem the tummy tube can be considered a "life preserver".

Thank you. I'm using my phone and the Carnival site isn't the easiest to navigate on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooner-Cruisers Posted July 2, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 2, 2015 We had our 3 year old in a puddle jumper, it's great and not an issue. The weight range is for 30-50 pounds. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JFFTNTU/ref=twister_B003648O7I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted July 2, 2015 #5 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Basically if it is close to the body it is fine. They don't want rafts or tubes in the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinxyB Posted July 2, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I've had my child in a puddle jumper and his own life jacket and had no problems. I think they mean no rafts, noodles, inner tubes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good and very fair rule. Works great for all concerned! :) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudechuck Posted July 2, 2015 #8 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I think the one that goes around the tummy like this would be fine. They don't want big tubes that you can sit it taking up space and possibly causing a hazard should it flip over while a child is sitting in it.

Those rings are fine. You see them on board all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted July 2, 2015 #10 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Water wings are better...there is little room for any kind of float or toy...the pools are small and packed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
