I plan on calling the cruise line but I'd like to see if anyone has any comments in this area as well. Thanks.
Jim,
Taking a walker as well as a wheelchair is a good idea.
The cruise lines tend to keep their own w/c for emergencies only.
Make sure your room is close to the elevator and activities.
Get a room with a balcony so that if you get tired you can enjoy the cabin without feeling closed in.
Hope you have a good time.
