Rare SuzieQ521 Posted October 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Hello: A few elderly family members will need wheelchairs for embarkation and disembarkation--do we just request these upon arrival at Pier 27 or is there a way to reserve ahead of time? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCX22 Posted October 10, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Wheelchairs can be requested at the entrance by bypassing the line and approaching a port agent . An assist working for the port will push through security and check-in. After check-in, the elderly will have to transfer to a wheelchair pushed by the ship's crew for embarkation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And can all family members go along with the wheelchair-assisted person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marden1970 Posted October 10, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 10, 2023 My hubby uses the wheelchair assist at SF terminal and I always go with him. I don't think it would be a problem for 2 or 3 others to join. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the port agents will permit family members to go along, provided that they are cruising as well. Last we had to use this service, I was the wheelchair pusher and was told only the people in staying in the wheelchair bound's cabin and one other cabin could use the elevator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
