Cunard welcomes guests with disabilities and reduced mobility and we aim to make your stay as relaxing and comfortable as possible.

 

Update to on board needs information

This part of the website is being refreshed as we update how we record your on board needs. We’re contacting everyone booked to sail with us in 2023 as a priority. Guests with 2024 or 2025 voyages will hear from us in due course.

 

 

Your on board needs

When booking your voyage, please let us know if you have any on board needs which may mean that you require additional assistance. You can do this by indicating your needs

Medical equipment and services

It you need to bring medical equipment on board, or have been diagnosed with a new condition, please contact us. We can also advise on pacemakers, colostomy bags, sharps and more.

Wheelchairs & mobility scooters

Our ships can cater for guests who need a wheelchair or scooter, and feature specially adapted staterooms with wide access doors and lower sinks, units and hand rails. Please contact us for specific restrictions.

Mobility equipment & storage

You’ll need to reserve an accessible stateroom if you wish to bring aboard a mobility scooter. You must store your mobility scooter, wheelchair or any other mobility aids inside your stateroom when not in use.

Deaf & hearing impairment

We offer hearing systems and visual alert systems on board. Our emergency videos have subtitles, and you can also request DVDs with captions, transcripts of theatre shows and written commentaries of shore excursions.

Blind & visual impairment

We can provide large print versions of the safety and emergency information and the Daily Programme. The emergency information is also available in Braille. We hold a variety of audio books on each ship, for use with your own audio player.

Assistance dogs

You can bring aboard a registered assistance dog, at no extra charge, if it’s trained to assist a person with a disability and a full member of the ADI and IGDF. Assistance dogs may not be permitted in certain ports.

Travelling alone

If you need help with daily tasks, such as washing, using the toilet, eating and moving around the ship, you’ll need to travel with a companion, carer or personal assistant who can provide this for you.

Cognitive disabilities

We welcome guests with intellectual, cognitive and developmental disabilities on our ships. If you need the help of a carer at home for day-to-day tasks, we ask that you travel with a companion who can meet your needs.

Additional requests

All stateroom and dining allocations are dependent on your fare type, and when you make your booking. We cannot guarantee the position of your stateroom or your dining room table. Please contact us with any questions.
