Feeling
Right at Home
Experiencing exciting ports of call is a part of a
cruise vacation. With Shore & Land Excursion programs, guests are able
to choose from a wide variety of wonderful possibilities. While not
every port of call may be amenable to wheelchair transportation, every
effort will be made to accommodate guests where possible. Our
experienced staff can help you select tours that will best meet your
needs.

Onboard Medical Services
Every ship offers limited professional medical services - for a
reasonable fee - through independently contracted, licensed
(international or domestic) physicians and nurses.
Airport Transportation
If requested in advance, we can arrange for lift-equipped buses to
transfer guests between the airport and the pier. This service is
offered at no extra charge to passengers who have made air/sea
arrangements through us or those who have purchased cruise-only
transfers.
Extra Assistance at the Pier
The cruise lines offer boarding and departure assistance to guests with
mobility impairments. Please request special assistance once you arrive
at the pier or let us know when you book.
Special Equipment
The ships have a variety of equipment available onboard, such as shower
stools, bed extensions, raised toilet seats and transfer benches. Please
contact us prior to boarding if interested.
Traveling from Ship to Shore
Occasionally, port facilities, congestion and weather make it impossible
to berth our ships at a particular port of call, at which point the
ships will be anchored offshore and small boats (tenders) are used to
travel back and forth. The cruise line will make every attempt to
accommodate each guest at every port. However, at some tendered ports,
guests may find some difficulty in transferring from the ship to the
tender. The safety of our guests and crew is always foremost in our mind
and the decision to tender any guest is made by the cruise line in each
case. Tender status of all ports is subject to change without notice.
Royal Caribbean has begun the installation of lifts that will make the
tendering process for guests with mobility impairments smooth and
stress-free. The project will be completed November 2006. Please check
with us for specific vessel information.
