General

Fresh water is in the swimming pools although there is generally less chlorine then typical pools located shore side.

On Queen Mary 2 we do allow the use of pool inflatable's such as lilos however, we ask that you do not use these if the pool is busy to allow room for other guests.

On Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria inflatable's are not allowed. Use of arm bands or inflatable rings for children are allowed.

Paddling pools are not permitted on board.
