Email the Access Desk at accessdesk@ncl.com and tell them you will need wheelchair assistance for embarkation and debarkation. They will send you a form that needs to be completed and sent back to them. When you get to the terminal tell them that you need wheelchair assistance and they will take you anywhere you need to go, ie: MDR, buffet, wherever. There may be a wait if there are a lot of people needing assistance and/or there is a limited number of crew assigned.

This is the correct answer. Mobility impaired check in is furthest to the left but there should be a crew member before that to help.

My husband is disabled and I can also confirm this information is correct. They probably could accommodate you if you just showed up and asked for help, but to be on the safe side contact them in advance. Someone will help you get checked in, probably including skipping the lines, and onto the ship wherever you want to be dropped off. I have found them extremely efficient and helpful. Then you will be on your own until disembarkation until you make alternate arrangements for the rest of the cruise. NOTE: when you contact them to let them know you need wheelchair assistance they will limit the excursions that are available to sign up for. There were several I was able to sign up for that my husband was not.

Yes this is correct. Also, if you need a wheelchair upon disembarkation, on the last day in your daily newsletter it will mention where people who need wheelchair assistance meet. (We always get at the meeting place early to disembark since there are usually quite a few people needing wheelchair assistance.)
