Tampa Cruiseport question

[CINCY40]

We leave on the Rhydam on Dec 5th. I know that the cruise ships usually have wheelchairs available to get me on board, but are they also available for rent for the cruise as they are in Vancouver? I have not yet admitted to myself that I need one more than once in a while, so have not purchased one.

 

Any help would be appreciated,

There are only a couple of providers the cruise ships will deal with for w/c rentals. I think Care Vacations is one.

You need to get hold of them NOW, and arrange for your wheelchair rental. It will be in your cabin waiting. I contacted them about 6 weeks pre-cruise, and they were quite miffed that I'd left it so close to sail date :)

I agree -- you need to book one NOW!!

Once on the ship they have a very limited supply that they can rent out to you. Once they are gone you are out of luck as they will not allow you to use the emergency ones on a daily basis.
