joyce&bob Posted February 18, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2023 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailin_Pirate Posted February 18, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Did you call Carnival and tell them of the change in status? Enjoy your larger accomodations without a scooter taking up space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homosassa Posted February 19, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenSDCA Posted February 20, 2023 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audcc77 Posted February 20, 2023 #7 Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) 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.

audcc77 Posted February 20, 2023 #8 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Here’s my bathroom. It took me a day or so to quit stepping up into the bathroom since it’s flat. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted February 20, 2023 #9 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I would say you’re still eligible for the room since he requires a walker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
