firefly333 Posted June 3, 2010 #2 Share Posted June 3, 2010 A lot use scooters. You will have the same issues anyone with mobility has, like my sister. We have to wait for the elevators, which sometimes can be frustrating, especially after the safety drill, when the whole ship is also waiting, or after the shows in the theater, sometimes you have to wait a long time.

seashinesunshine Posted June 3, 2010 #4 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Somewhere on here are threads about disabled travelers. You will find tons of great info there! but yes, I see many people in scooters and they seem to have no problems except for the elevators, and then it is very seldom that I have seen lines.

thekings23 Posted June 3, 2010 #5 Share Posted June 3, 2010 A high percentage of cruisers are in scooters, the ships were built for them it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillian marie Posted June 4, 2010 #6 Share Posted June 4, 2010 You'll be fine. There are many folks on scooters and call CCL customer service and they'll be able to assign table arrangements that are convienient for dinner too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogimax Posted June 4, 2010 #7 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Carnival is well aware that many folks need to use scooters. Just hope that coourtesy will prevail at the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janabm81 Posted June 4, 2010 #8 Share Posted June 4, 2010 You'll be good...just make sure if her mobility issues are significant that you get a handicap room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
