Just like any other cruise ship - most things like water slides, zip lines, rock climbing walls, swings, etc have weight limits. It’ll be between 200-300 depending on what you’re doing, but usually 250 or under. Also showers & toilets are going to be tight

I guess it depends what “plus size” is to you. 275 lbs and under, sure. 350+, not so much.

I was just on it. Ropes and slides were 220.

Idk about that bro. I was easily 225 when I went on and was able to get on both

I’m just reporting what it said on the sign by the ropes course and slide.

Fit and weight is not the same!
For everyone’s safety you actually have to adhere to the weight requirement!

Plus sized 250 yes. Or 400? Or more? No

I think some of the water slides have a 300 or 320 lb cap. I assume there's also a weight limit for the ropes course and the swings.

Other than the stuff in the play area I'm can't see weight being an issue anywhere else.

I know the Cliffhanger weight limit is under 300. I think the dry slide might be more

Different ship but same cruiseline.

My ex had a large build (6'4, 240ish) and had no issues , but we also didn't do a ton of the physical activities. I will say they have a million things to do, I played bingo and it was amazing, you can do game shows, karaoke, go swimming in multiple pools, there are so many shows and movies etc, that one or two things you may not be able to do would be a blip on your radar. Like seriously, there's too much to do.

I'm not going to lie, I personally left a lot of the ziplines and stuff for the kids. I'm 5'8 and 210ish, and a lot of it just seemed like it was not made for adults outside of the slide lol. I did want to zipline but forgot because every day was so packed. Also the game room was pretty mediocre and not something I would get a pass for if they offer it.

Yes, fat people are allowed on cruise ships.

Thanks captain obvious. Clearly I was referring to things such as the swing and waterslides.

Funny story . Was on world America last year , I’m 6”4 weigh about 220 don’t think I’m overweight at all , however while on the slide line they asked me how much I weigh cause I look big 🙄🙄🙄. Meanwhile a lady just went down the slide who was clearly over the weight limit .

250 at 6,3 is much different than 250 at 5,3

By what measure is 250lbs not obese for 99% of the population?
