Recommended Posts

Cabins ready upon boarding is not a benefit associated with handicapped accessible staterooms.

 

FYI - the VISTA alone has 35 handicapped accessible cabins. Haven't charted out the others yet.

 

35 out of 1823.

 

There are more Havana cabins than accessible cabins.

39 of them. And 102 spa suites.

 

The Magic and the Dream also have 35 accessible cabins but no Havana cabins.

 

Is that somehow better?

If you think about it the reason that balcony cabins are not HDCP accessible is two fold. One, there is a lip at the door to keep the water from the balcony out and it isn't and really can't be made to confirm to accessible requirements, and second the door has an automatic closer and is not controlled electronically. Also, with most balconies once you place furniture on the balcony there is no ability to turn a wheelchair so it just doen't make sense to to make the interiors of these cabins accessible on a grand scale when the balcony isn't accessible.
