What cruise ship tracks child-friendly? I am terrified of my children to climb the rails of most ships.? I've been on both Carnival and Royal Caribbean, but neither time did I travel with my children. Now, my husband and I are ready to take a family cruise, but I like to find a boat with glass railing or other type of rail that a child can not climb or squeeze through. Any help would be great thank you ~!

Basically family friendly lines are concerned by the escalation of children as any responsible parent would. So choose a ship and have a great cruise.
I guess the Disney cruise line would have because it's a cruise line of the family based on the best way to find out is to ask a travel agent or airlines themselves.
I can not really answer your question, but I agree with the other poster here ... The Disney cruise line would be your best bet, since it is geared toward families, especially children. I guess they make it as safe as possible.
For the record, however, I can not think of any time on top of my head when I heard of any child to fall on the side. Now, drunk men fall ... that's another story ... but not children.
I went on a cruise RC not too long ... the tracks were tight and / or drank a glass or other see-through plastic cover, too.
It is not possible that a child can go up or "fall" a ship. Any cruise line will be safe.
Disney cruises are designed with children in mind, so in terms of activities, attractions and facilities, I think they are more responsive to children, so I think they are safer for children.
I just returned from Disney.
