Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm an amputee, y'all. This is my other leg. So, the great thing is the great days I can walk at least a half a day, sometimes a little more.

Book that thing early because people want them just because they're bigger. And uh you know, there's people who actually need it because they have to be in a wheelchair.

Stick all of the accessible cabins near the elevator. And, you know, even if let's say they're four cabins deep away from the elevator, keep those hallways wider.

Find the channels who are similar to you and uh and and of course I'm speaking to everybody here is uh find out what you can do.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book accessible cabins early as they sell out quickly.
Advocate for wider hallways and cabins near elevators on cruise ships.
Use YouTube channels focused on accessibility to find tips and see what's possible.
Communicate with cruise lines about specific needs, such as early room access.
Consider timing your boarding to avoid crowds and luggage in hallways.
