Ahoy Raymond!
Thanks for sailing to planDisney with this great question. I hope you are eagerly counting down the days until you set sail on your cruise vacation! I will be happy to give you specific locations on the
Disney Fantasy that you will have wheelchair access to onboard activities and entertainment.
Captain Mickey has planned all his ships to make
accessibility a top priority. Most Guest areas onboard the ship are accessible, including theatres, restaurants and shops. You will be able to take in every amazing scene and song in the
Walt Disney Theatre! 30 minutes prior to show times, Cast Members will be available at the Deck 3 entrance to assist Guests with seating. Wheelchair seating is available in the both main seating and balcony sections. For access to seating in the center or front sections, please contact a Cast Member outside the entrance for assistance at least 10 minutes prior to the show time. Meanwhile, at the Buena Vista Theatre, wheelchair seating is available in the rear of the theatre through the Deck 5 entrance, or the center of the theatre at the Deck 4 entrance.
For on-deck activities on the Disney Fantasy (like fireworks), ramped access for Guests using wheelchairs is available on the Deck 11 Midship, port side of the pool deck. In addition, viewing areas are available on Deck 12 overlooking the pool area. Cast Members will be at these locations to assist Guests in wheelchairs 30 minutes prior to the start of on-deck activities. It’s recommended that Guests needing assistance should arrive no later than 10 minutes prior to the start of the on-deck activity.
If you haven’t already, you may want to request a
wheelchair accessible stateroom, which has a 32-inch entrance door and features greater space inside the stateroom. As you probably already know, you must provide your own wheelchair or arrange for the rental, delivery and pickup of that device to and from the ship on your own. Also, wheelchairs must be stored inside staterooms or in a designated public storage area due to safety regulations.
Raymond, I hope this gives you every assurance that you will be able to have so many magical experiences on your Disney cruise. Sail back by planDisney you have any additional questions-I'd love to answer them!
Happy Sailing!
