stipmom Posted November 22, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2021 It seems most are towards the front of the ship. This would be for a first time cruiser who has sight issues Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancing Shoes Posted November 23, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Motion is less if you are near middle and at a lower floor. Stayed in a cabin that was very far forward many years ago. We could tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted November 23, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I am very susceptible to motion sickness and I have found the front of the ship the worst place to be in bad weather. I feel the motion quite a bit more there than very far aft (although aft is quite a bit worse than mid-ship). That said, I have sailed close to the front on a number of occasions and managed to control any issues with meds, ginger pills, and motion wrist bands. But it is not ideal.

RonPaula Posted November 23, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I’m not sure that the accessible cabins are designed for people with impaired sight. I may be wrong, but they are larger in size for wheelchairs to maneuver and have safety grab bars in the bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mom says Posted November 23, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Ron Paula is correct. The accessible staterooms were designed for pax with mobility disabilities. There is nothing in them aimed to assist those with visual impairments. There is braille signage in public areas and elevators. PreCovid at least, the daily newsletter was available in braille, and large font menus in the dining venues. OP, exactly what type of accommodations does your friend need?

Pickels Posted November 23, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 23, 2021 If you are susceptible to sea-sickness or motion-sickness, the best cabins to shoot for would be middle of the ship, lower deck. The higher you go, the more "movement", and forward or aft, the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
