orchestrapal Posted June 10, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 10, 2017 You would probably do better to post your question on the CC Disabled Travelers Forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitob Posted June 10, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Also google the port name and disability or wheelchair or accessibility. There is lots of useful information on the web Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyto Posted June 11, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Thank you. I did post it on the Disabled Forum. I also wanted to post here in case others that don't use that forum might have some information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailbynite Posted June 29, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Mikeyto, Happy Birthday in advance! I have been to the ports you listed with a friend who uses a motorized wheelchair. There have been very few dfficulties, but nothing earth-shattering or deal breaking. In ports where a steeply-angled gangway or stairs are in use, we were brought on (and disembarked) through a dock-level staff entrance. In all fairness, I will admit, we made our own sightseeing arangements, taking into consideration getting into an out of a wheel-chair and storing the wheelchair during road trips. As your chair is manual, this could be much easier. Edited June 29, 2017 by sailbynite mis-spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
