The Joy of Cruising: An Accessible Adventure

Going on a cruise is a wonderful thing. As your ship pulls out from the dock, ever so slowly churning up the water as the bow begins to break waves, you feel your troubles begin to slip away. There’s nothing like having everything taken care of for you – but don’t be fooled; not all cruise lines are the same when it comes to accessibility. Read on to learn our top tips for finding an accessible cruise.

Seek Out Newer Ships

While some oceangoing lines have retrofitted older vessels with accessible features, newer ships are often designed with accessibility in mind. These ships typically include:

• Ramps to all areas
• Touch-button doors
• Accessible cabins with wider doors
• Roll-in showers
• Pool or whirlpool lifts
