About Accessible Cruise Staterooms
All accessible staterooms are on a 1st come 1st serve basis. When booking an accessible cabin there are certain qualifications to be considered. First, our office speaks to the guest personally to assess the needs of the guest, as well as answering any question our guest may have. We like to save the accessible cabins for guests that require these facilities. We understand that every person is different and it is our mission to best fulfill each person’s needs as best we can. It is best to place a deposit as soon as possible for guests reserving an accessible room. For further information on accessibility onboard please click here.
