Access around the ship
To enjoy the ship to its full potential while staying safe, here are the key things you need to be aware of:
The majority of public areas and venues have level or ramped access.
There are raised door thresholds throughout the ship which need to be navigated with care.
You may find certain areas of the ship narrower than you are used to.
In the interest of your own safety and that of other guests, mobility scooters and wheelchairs must be driven at a safe speed at all times.
Lifts
Please pay careful attention when backing out of lifts in a mobility scooter/wheelchair as these are often in close proximity to the staircases.
