Can you fall of a cruise ship easily?


Travel Info
we are going on our first cruise next week and wanted to know if it was easy to fall off the sides and how tall the railings were, we have three kids.

Travel Tips
It would be difficult to accidentally fall off of the railings unless climbing up on them foolishly. Do your kids fall over railings that don't have ocean on the other side of them? If they do so routinely, then you may want to reconsider your vacation plans. You need to impress upon your kids the potential danger, and you might want to make a rule that they can only go near the railings when they are with you and/or holding your hand.

Railings rise 3 1/2 feet off the outside deck floor, which is strictly regulated by the U.S. Coast Guard.

Others
No, you really have to work at it.
the railings on most cruise ships are tall and quite safe. of course, if you climb up on top of them you can fall off. have a great time! i love cruising.
it think it is pretty safe once they don't climb up on the railings.
Should you not have thought of this earlier?
NO NO NO NO NO NO HELL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It's really not that easy. You would have to be specifically climbing the rails to fall off. Even then, you would need to lose your balance, have the boat shake, or climb to high on the rails to fall. In some areas, if you would fall, you would fall onto a lower deck and not actually fall into the water.

If you have a verandah, all the lines are a little different. Some offer different types so that it would be impossible for kids to get out.

The main thing, you just have to watch them. If they aren't in one of the kids clubs, don't let them run around a lone. Keep an eye on them, don't let them go alone, make them hold your hand etc.

It's not easy to fall off the rails, but you should let your kids know it is very dangerous to climb them. However, you never know who is on board (you never know who might be staying at the same hotel as you on vacation either) and what their intentions are. No one, no matter what age, should run around on ships (or most travel destination) alone. Stay together, and try to limit any alcohol that could cause more problems.

Have fun, just keep an eye on the kids and make sure you explain everything to them. Most cruiselines offer something for familes, they do everything they can to make kids safe!
