Help with ocean suite bathtub on Magic

[lindacat]

I recently received a complimentary upgrade from the casino for a 7/2023 cruise on the Magic.  

I was upgraded to an ocean suite and accepted it before I realized that there is no separate shower in the room.  My mother who will be almost 83 at the time

of the cruise is staying in the room with me.  She is not very mobile, and uses a cane.  She has had trouble getting in and out of the tub in the past. She does not have problems at home because the sides of the tub are low and she has a grab bar and shower seat.  Before I call and change back to a suite, does anyone have a suggestion for portable equipment I can bring so that she can use the tub safely.  

 

As much as I would enjoy the suite, I do not want her to be unsafe

We just had a suite on the Splendor.  The sides of the tub are VERY high.  The best I could recommend would be to find a transfer shower seat.  This is a shower seat that will allow her to sit down and then slide over; however, she will still need to lift her legs over the side of the tub.  Something like this

I wouldn't even mess with the tub.  Remember you are on a ship that can shift or roll at any moment with no warning.   Safety first.   🙂

I didn't accept the upgrade offer because of "the tub".

I think you made the right choice.  Suites are nice, but to be honest, her safety is more important.  We found the tub to be difficult, DH because of some slight mobility issues and me because I'm only 5' tall.

I'm barely 4'11"!

We have the deluxe OV....2 bathrooms.  The first one is the traditional shower...the second one has the tub/shower combo.  If there's something to hang on to, I'd love to relax in the tub.  If not...it's the shower for me........

Thank you,  you are confirming what I already thought.  I will call and switch back to the balcony.  It wouldnt be worth the worry.
