Embarkation deck?

[rmorlock]

I am going to be on the Carnival Legend to Alaska for my first cruise and will be taking my parents along. My mother has some mobility issues, but in general can walk and take elevators fine. We are on deck 5, fairly close to the elevators.

 

When we get on the ship for the first time, what deck will we be on? Is if Deck 4, the main deck? Is it the same for shore excursions? We will be leaving from Seattle if that matters.

 

Thanks

It depends on the port. It can vary depending on water level and docks.

You may also want to post this on the Carnival forum where there is a better chance of reaching folks who may have direct experience:

You should enter the ship on Promenade Deck 2

To go onshore you leave either from Promenade Deck 2 or Deck A, near medical.

 

Might want to ask for wheelchair assistance for embarkation as the gangways can be long and steep.

AT ports, you will be informed which deck and side of ship to use....just depends!

It really can vary and that includes the same port depending on the sea conditions and where the ship is berthed.

I also recommend asking for wheelchair assistance at boarding.

On Legend you board on deck 2 at embarkation. At your port stops you will either exit using deck 2 or through the ports on A level whihc is 1.5 decks below deck 2. There are no other places to board Legend.
