| Many cruise lines are becoming increasingly aware of the special
needs of wheelchair travelers. When choosing a cruise, be sure
and ask if the ship has doorways wide enough for most chairs,
rooms designed with wheelchair movement in mind, and bathrooms
featuring roll-in showers and hand-held detachable shower heads.
Additionally, many lines offer special wheelchair transportation
gangway mechanisms, ramps, and elevators with Braille call
buttons as well as audible arrival sounds, as well as a supply
of ADA "all in one kits" including telephone amplifiers, visual
smoke detectors, door knocker sensors, text telephones and
other aids for guests with hearing impairment.
