Can I use a wheelchair onboard?

Ambassador Cruise Line warmly welcomes guests with disabilities, including those with mobility restrictions as well as restricted sight and hearing. However, with the very different nature of a cruising holiday when compared to one on land, and purely for safety reasons, such guests should be accompanied by an able-bodied, or a fully sighted/hearing companion (as appropriate), who will be responsible for providing any assistance that you may require both onboard and ashore.


Ambience has thirteen cabins adapted for those needing mobility aids, and Ambition has two. 


Guests booked into one of our Disabled cabins, will be able to use their mobility aid throughout the vessel; however, those taking a wheelchair or scooter for temporary use only, may be asked to park or leave their mobility aid in designated areas near certain public venues, including the restaurants and show lounges, in order to leave access routes clear. Guests who are not booked in a Disabled cabin must be able to walk short distances in some venues, without the support of larger mobility equipment (eg scooters).


There are size and weight restrictions for the mobility equipment that can be taken onboard. For further information of the restrictions in place, please refer to our Mobility Policy
