Cruises Booked > QM2 Southampton - Cherbourg - Southampton - November 8th 2010
You did get a handicap cabin, didn't you? All the ships have tem and they are a lot more convenient for those in wheelchairs (I know, this is an obvious to most people, but just in case.....)
Most of the lines cater to those in wheelchairs or on scooters or with any other sort of assist. In fact, on Holland America cruises you have to sometimes work very hard to avoid all the assist devices!

We are going on the Grand Princess, from Southampton. Have booked an inside cabin with disable factilities, wetroom etc, hoping there's enough space for the wheelchair ......
cruising chick thanks for the link to disable cruisers area, great photo's showing the cabins, though don't know what ship they are but gives me an better idea of what to expect
Lanky lad thanks for the heads up re the tender port, didn't know what that was....persume you have the option to stay on board? I'll check the tender port with our travel agents..
There are a lot fewer tender ports now than there used to be so that really should be less of a concern now than it was 20 years ago.
One of our friends was on a scooter. At one port two big crewmen carried first her scooter then her off the ship to the land. They were apparently very used to it and it was an almost SOP to them.
