Have you considered something like this?

I was considering buying a rollator/transport chair combination.  Although I already have both, I though having a combo might be easier for travel.  

I have a cruise booked to Hawaii.  This will be my first cruise needing assistive devises.  I can walk a short distance on good days with a cane.  I can’t walk long distances.  My condition is progressive and will only be worse mobility wise by the time I cruise.  I have booked an accessible cabin as I not only need a wheelchair or walker, but also grab bars in bathroom.  I have a Rollator and a transfer folding wheelchair, but am planning to rent an electric chair or scooter for the cruise.  Which would you recommend and why?

It was there 2 days ago, now it’s gone.

We cruised on the magic in January. The magic was a very clean ship and had great service. We had ice cream every day (sometimes multiple times a day) and never had any problems. The crew were always cleaning. The ship is in great condition. We had a great time. I would have to agree that the casino is very smokey, we avoided that area and just went to the 4th floor or walked outside if we needed to get to the other side to the front of the ship. Not a huge problem.

In case anyone finds this thread, we are just back off the Magic. We ended up staying in the deck 8 cabin above the port smoking area. It was no problem at all. Never smelled any smoke. Although there were a couple of times that there were some get togethers below on deck 5, it was never a problem for us up on our balcony. Most of the time it was very quiet.

I personally don't and my DW who can get motion sickness suffered nothing on the Breeze or Magic on Deck 11 forward.

Thanks. 👍

Both were busy and noisy at times. Other times not so much so.

 

Some very loud smoker groups occurred and the inevitable social nature of being in a rapidly dwindling and socially unacceptable group tends to make one noisy :D ;)

 

I wouldn't choose a balcony on deck 6 or 7 above these area's. Deck 8 and 9 maybe. but I like being forward and higher...deck 10 or 11 on Magic so it wouldn't be an issue for me.

Thank you for your feedback. This was my concern. I am on 8 so may be boarder line. I see the same cabins opened up on starboard so I may move. We have 2 cabins and are trying to open up balconies so it is limiting us on choices. Forward looks nice, my friend was concerned about sea sickness. Do you find movement to be more forward?

You really need to change your location. The noise from smoking a cigarette is deafening:rolleyes:

LOL...What I meant to ask was, since smokers have such a limited area to smoke outside, is the smoking area very busy and perhaps a more noisy area? I'm not judging the smokers, just concerned that since there are not many choices for smokers outside, it might get pretty crowded under the balcony. Just looking for helpful feedback.

We are booked directly above this area on deck 8. Was the area really busy/noisy because of the smoking area being so reduced? We want to be able to sit out on the balcony without a lot of noise and smoke. I would hope the smoke would disapate by deck 8. We were'nt worried about being on port, but thought most people would be near red frog or Lanai area smoking. More spread out.

We are on 1/14 cruise. FTTF showed up just last week and we booked. It was up a couple days and now it is gone. Doesn't show at all. I was checking several times a day. I guess when it sold out they just took it off. No other excursions are showing. Don't wait, keep checking.
