Europe Cruising

kokopelli-az, thank you so much for the information, I have not reach out to the access office yet, but I will, Baxter does delivers to Rome that I checked already, one thing I didn't want to do is to move all the boxes myself if they could be delivered to the dock. thanks for the information about the cabs, we are going to need it.

First of all, what cruise line will you be on?   You need to contact that line's Access Department as there may be certain guidelines they follow / require.   I'm not so sure Baxter delivers to Rome.  You might consult with your medical provider and ask if they have any recommendations for Rome.  

 

Also, do a search on this Board for dialysis and you will find other conversations about dialysis on a  ship.  

 

If you choose to bring your supplies with you, pursuant to the Air Carrier Access Act of 1990, your airline should allow your supplies to fly at no charge.  

Good information, thank you, we are traveling thru Princess cruises, I printed their guide lines but they are kind of broad, one thing they ask is for us to supply a letter from the nephrologist allowing my wife to travel and showing proof that she has been ok for the  last 12 months before the starting of the cruise,  talked to Baxter and they told me that in fact they do deliver to Rome, thanks again.  Has any one embark on Rome I am curious about the process, I asked a princess rep about Baxter shipping directly to the cruise line and he couldn't give any information, bit disappointed.

We will be cruising in the Mediterranean, from Rome to Barcelona, has anyone got Baxter to deliver to Rome, Italy? This will be our first time and we are nervous about having the solutions deliver to the dock. I think having the delivery to a hotel could be better but then I will have to move 10 to 12 boxes with 2- 5 liters bags. Please provide tips or experiences.  Thank you
