Rare crewsweeper Posted May 11, 2011 #6 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Lots of interior cabins though http://www.*************.com/ship_accessible_cabins.cfm?shipid=321 Try the Legend out of Tampa. Or search for ships on the web site above (spelled out :www dot vactionstogo dot com and scroll down for the special needs link on the left side bar.

brooklynfc Posted May 11, 2011 #7 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I think you should call the special needs department. They probably can assist you in finding cabins. Supposedly, if a accessiable cabin is booked by someone "able body" and you need the room, they will relocate them and give you the room. But it is not exactly what their website states: Wheelchair Users Our ships have specially designed cabins for guest using wheelchairs. We have two classifications of cabins: Modified Cabins: These cabins have been modified from our standard cabins to include wider entry doorways. The cabin entry measures approximately 29". The cabin bathroom entry ranges from 22" to 29", with a lip ranging from 3.5" to 8" into the bathroom. These cabins are reserved for our guests who use a wheelchair for distance or guests with mobility. Fully accessible cabins: These cabins have an approximate 32" entry doorway into the cabin and cabins bathroom. There are no lips into the bathroom. They have roll-in showers with fold-down shower seats. Additionally, there is a full turnaround space of approximately 60" x 60" in the cabin and as well as in cabin bathroom. These cabins are reserved for our guests who use a wheelchair, with limited or no mobility, or guests who use motorized scooters. As with all Carnival reservations, staterooms within each category are assigned on a first-come/first-serve basis. There it is advisable to reserve an accessible or modified stateroom in advance. Standard cabins: These cabins have an approximate 22" entry doorway an 8" lip into the cabin bathroom, a 4" lip into the shower stall, and 7" lip to the balcony (if applicable).
