berbet Posted February 19, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Who have you rented scooters from in NY for Norwegian cruises that will deliver right to the ship and pick up afterwards? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted February 19, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2013 You have to ask Special Needs at NCL who they allow you to rent from. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frick_&_Frack Posted February 19, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2013 For NCL - from their website: Guests with Mobility Impairments A wheelchair, scooter or walker may be the primary mobility assistance aid for getting on and off the ship for guests who cannot walk on their own. Norwegian Cruise Line has a limited supply of wheelchairs onboard. In order to accommodate our guests, Norwegian Cruise Line wheelchairs are reserved exclusively for embarkation and disembarkation situations. If you will require regular use of a wheelchair, we strongly recommend that you bring your own wheelchair with you. You may also make rental arrangements onboard from a limited supply of rental wheelchairs which are available onboard on a first come first serve basis. Motorized wheelchairs and scooters are allowed in our accessible staterooms provided that they are powered by gel-cell batteries and the chargers must be adaptable to 110 volts. Should you choose a stateroom that has not been designated as accessible, you will need to bring a collapsible wheelchair, or if you have a motorized wheelchair or scooter, the width must not exceed 21 inches to enter the stateroom door. All scooters and wheelchairs MUST be stored in the stateroom. Due to the safety and escape way requirements established by SOLAS regulations, they cannot be stored in the hallways, stairways, or any other public area. Beach wheelchairs can be rented for use on Norwegian Cruise Line's private island. For additional details on the prearranged rental program, please contact our authorized vendor: Special Needs at Sea Phone: (toll-free) 800-513-4515 or 954-585-0575 Fax: 954-585-0577 http://www.specialneedsatsea.com http://www.specialneedsatsea.com/index.cfm/about-us/cruise-lines/norwegian-cruise-line/ My DH uses a scooter from Special Needs At Sea and it's always charged up and in the cabin waiting for us. It really is great and very helpful! If you have any other questions - feel free to ask! Happy Cruising! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bean24 Posted February 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 22, 2013 We rented from Special needs at sea for my mil on the Gem last month. The original one had a problem, and they were able to replace it on the ship, no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
