Today, most ships can accommodate physically challenged guests, in specially designed staterooms. All guest baggage and property are at owners risk at all times. Safes are available on some cruise lines in certain staterooms. Be sure to carry all valuables with you, and identify your luggage inside and out. Check for the baggage regulations for your specific cruise, and be aware that most suggest an overnight bag for your last night, when the steward will be collecting all checked baggage for disembarkation the following morning.
Cruise lines encourage moderation and safe drinking.
They do not allow alcoholic beverages of any kind to be brought on board for consumption. Most ships operate on a cashless system, where an account can be set up with a major credit card, or signed for payment with cash or traveler's check. Today's cruise ships boast the highest technology offered, and a tour of the bridge is definitely in order when available. Ship crews are helpful, knowledgeable and professional in every way. The Captain's Dinner is usually a special event to kick off each voyage and get everyone acquainted.
