Booked Handicapped Cabin

[joyce&bob]

Leaving next week...at the time I booked, my husband needed a handicapped cabin to accommodate a scooter.  Since booking, now he only needs a walker.  Will we be moved to another type of cabin when we board?

Did you call Carnival and tell them of the change in status?

 

Enjoy your larger accomodations without a scooter taking up space.

No.  You will find the accessible shower much safer for him.

nope you will be in the same cabin

If he is using a walker, he will still need and enjoyed some of the accessibility features in the cabin (such as the extra space to maneuver the walker in the cabin). 

 

You will still have the same cabin.

I agree with the others that you will still need some of the features of a handicap cabin. However, if you are feeling bad about taking one, there is the option of an ambulatory accessible cabin. Those have grab bars in the bathroom and a fold down seat in the shower, but they don’t provide the wider doorways, and there is still a lip at the bathroom door. If there’s any risk of tripping, I’d consider staying put. We will be in an ambulatory accessible cabin in May, I’ll have a review after.

I booked last minute and they gave me a handicap cabin.  
 

I’d stay put.  

I think if your husband is using a walker then those wide doorways with the doors which remain propped open will work great for him.  
 

Plus you don’t have to step up into the bathroom.

Here’s my bathroom.  It took me a day or so to quit stepping up into the bathroom since it’s flat.  😂

I would say you’re still eligible for the room since he requires a walker.
