Pool Sizes

[Celebrategoldens]

I have seem many posts that indicate that the size of all the pools is too small on the Wonder and Magic. I haven't yet cruised with Disney (we go in August ) but I have sailed with other lines and their pools seemed small to me. Can one of the listers that has been on several lines compare the size of the pools on the Magic to the pools on the other lines? I wonder if the pools on ships have to be small in order for the weight of the water (and the people in the pool) to be supported on a cruise ship deck? I know it would be wonderful to have an olympic size pool on a ship, but is that technically possible??? When we last sailed on the Carnival Destiny, the family pool was very small and you waited in line for a LONG time to go down the slide. I am just wondering if the small pool size is industry wide, or just a Disney problem.



Thanks

I have been on both Disney and Carnival. I would say that pools are very comparable in size. Disney actually has three pools, where as not all Carnival ships have more than one pool.
