Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival instituted an absolute no weed policy on board their ships and cruisers started to see that an embarcation Carnival had drug smelling dogs

if you don't follow this policy you could be denied boarding on your next Carnival Cruise

scooters that do not fit in The State Room will not be allowed on board should guests be unable to make alternate arrangements or run a smaller scooter or travel without it he or she will be denied boarding

I would really be very sad if someone arrives at embarcation with one of those extra- llarge mobility scooters and was denied boarding

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ensure your mobility scooter fits through the 22-inch doorway and can fold and collapse for storage in your stateroom.
If your scooter is larger than 21 inches wide, book a fully accessible stateroom with a wider doorway.
Follow Carnival's no-weed policy to avoid being denied boarding or put off the ship.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

Carnival Cruise Line Brand Ambassador John Heald has posted details of the cruise line’s mobility scooter policy and the size limitations for mobility devices onboard, urging guests to be aware of the requirements to avoid the possibility of being denied boarding if a scooter is oversized. With increasing numbers of guests using such scooters, safety procedures must be followed to be sure hallways are not blocked and everyone can move through their staterooms safely. Guests who show up with a scooter that does more than meet the size and folding requirements for their stateroom, will be denied boarding with their scooter. Watch this video for details!
