OK, here is the response from Royal about not being able to submit the Special Needs form : In the meantime, you may email us at special_needs@rccl.com and kindly send your booking details, the name of the guest who will be needing the accommodations, and the list of accommodations so we can note the reservation. There's no need to fill out the form. Just compose an email with above details and please send it to the email address above.

The online form will not submit for me either. And I tried two different browsers. I emailed Royal today and told them about this issue and asked them to send me a link with a special needs form where not only could you complete it on line, but you could also submit it on line.

Here are the Elite Plus benefits (from February on the Apex) FYI.

You might want to hop on over to the Disabled Travel forum and post your question. Also do a search on that forum for the ports you will be visiting. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/114-disabled-cruise-travel/

Don't forget you need to report to Carnival's Access Department that you are on dialysis and will be bringing supplies. Have you seen their page about this? https://www.carnival.com/about-carnival/special-needs You might find this interesting. It's a few years old but has timely tips. https://homedialysis.org/news-and-research/blog/196-cruising-with-home-dialysis-tips-from-a-platinum-cruiser Never, not ever, let your life saving equipment out of your sight.

Start here. You need to let Celebrity know about your needs. This link is for accessible excursions. https://www.celebritycruises.com/special-needs/accessible-shore-excursions

You might post this inquiry also on the Princess board. ie, "anyone currently on, or soon to be on, the Sun Princess in an accessible stateroom who can let me know about whether there are automatic doors?" Let them know what kind of stateroom you will be in because sometimes the fancier ones have amenities the others don't have.

Accessible staterooms get booked very early. Glad you were able to get one. For your next cruise 😎 book your accessible stateroom early to be sure you get one. 😉

You might post this on the Celebrity forum and ask if there is anyone currently, or soon to be, on the Beyond who could take photos or confirm access to the pool.

Have you done a search for a Hoyer left on this forum? There are several discussions about it. Do you have an accessible stateroom? You will most certainly need one. And check with Royal's Access Department. They will need to know about the Hoyer and wheelchair. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/experience/accessible-cruising Cory Lee has a discussion on his website with Royal's Director of Disabilities and he mentions a Hoyer lift. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/experience/accessible-cruising

Hop over to the Disabled Cruise Travel board. Post your question there or do a search on that board for oxygen and concentrator. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/114-disabled-cruise-travel/ You will also need to complete a special needs form for Princess. Contact their Access Desk for this.

One of the advantages of having the pusher from the airline is that they know exactly how to get from Point A to Point B, know all the short-cuts and how to navigate security and lines efficiently.

Definitely post your query on the Disabled Cruise Travel board as mentioned by @GeezerCouple

Depends on location, supply and demand. Contact SpecialNeedsatSea.com and Scootaround.com for pricing. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples. Sometimes they will price it with insurance so you want to be sure your quotes are for the same thing. Both companies pretty much offer the same scooters for rent. PS. We have never opted for the insurance.....
