Most modern cruise ships have a number of cabins specially designed to accommodate passengers in wheelchairs or in need of TTY communications. Service animals are permitted on board if prior arrangements have been made. Your agent can help answer any specific questions concerning your needs. They are designed for efficiency and to encourage you to use the much larger public facilities onboard the ship. Some outside cabins will also have a small veranda.
Most cabins have twin beds which can be converted to a queen size.
Many of the newer ships have safes in the rooms, and TVs that show current movies, give casino instructions and general cruise information. However, this request must be made in advance, so be sure to advise your agent of this requirement when you book your cruise. Rarely is this a problem. However, if you wish to move to another table, speak with the Restaurant Manager or maitre d'. They will make every effort to seat you with more compatible dining companions.
