Creator's Key Takeaways

accessible cruising is a different monster and if you've never done it or never had to experience it, um, you know, obviously if you do have a disability that you live with, it's something you need to know.

I always try to plan ahead ever since I've been in cruising. So, as soon as a cruise line releases their new schedule, I try to look as far ahead as I can and try to book those cruises.

Just because somebody has a disability, especially in a mobility scooter, don't think that they need special privileges. Just common courtesies.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book accessible cabins as soon as possible, especially on smaller ships.
Consider a three-wheel scooter for better turning radius on cruise ships.
Complete the accessibility form for the cruise line within 30 days of sailing if you have special needs.
Use the handicap button on smart elevators to get a less crowded elevator with more time.
Always check ship time and return to the ship well before departure.
