Aqua duck

[Jim6122]

This will be our first time on the new boats, how is the line for the AquaDuck? Is it usually a long wait or does it move pretty good?

Thanks
Jim

Depends on how packed the cruise is and when you go. We had the kids in their swimsuits when we boarded, had lunch, and then headed to the pools and Aquaduck --- no lines as people hadn't received their luggage yet.

We also went first thing in the morning -- no lines, and at late night (an hour or 2 before they closed) --- again no waiting.

Avoid Sea Days if you don't like lines --- my kids went at least 20 times because we planned it right and they loved it.

We rode first thing on our CC day and we were the only ones there! It was my idea-- I told my husband "we are already in our swimsuits, let's see how long the wait is." We rode twice but could have done it 20 times if we had wanted to. We were still able to get chairs with umbrellas at the beach.

We got back on ship early on port days and had no issues with lines. Sea days can be long.

We had our kids wear their suits when we boarded, they opened the Aqua Duck around 12:30 and my kids rode it about 4 times before the line got too long.

I think DS rode it every day of the cruise, at different times of the day. Riding it at night is a must-do with the ship's lighting. Very cool.

As PP said, avoid sea days if you don't want to wait in line. If we happened to be walking through with swim suits on, we would check the line and jump in if it wasn't too long.

DS even rode the last night right before it closed while I was finishing the packing.
