NO AUTOMATIC BATHROOM DOORS ON CELEBRITY CONSTELLATION

ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM? I WAS JUST ON A CONSTELLATION CRUISE, ALONG WITH MANY, MANY, MANY OTHERS WHO HAD EITHER WHEELCHAIRS, WALKERS OR SCOOTERS, AND HAD A VERY HARD TIME ACCESSING THE BATHROOMS. IT IS VERY EMBARRASING TO HAVE TO RELY ON THE KINDNESS OF OTHERS JUST TO USE THE BATHROOMS. GOD FORBID IF YOU HAD AN EMERGENCY.

I WOULD LIKE FOR WHOEVER HAS THE POWER TO HAVE AUTOMATIC DOORS INSTALLED TRY SITTING IN ONE OF THESE AND SEE HOW IT FEELS.

I KNOW THAT A PLAN IS IN PLACE TO DO SOME TYPE OF UPGRADING IN MARCH AND IT WOULD BE GREAT IF THIS COULD BE INCLUDED.

IT WOULD ALSO BE EVEN BETTER IF THIS SITUATION COULD BE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE NEW PRESIDENT.

I can totally relate to your experience on the constellation cruise. It's disheartening when accessibility is a challenge, especially with so many others facing similar issues. On a brighter note, much like the alignment of stars in nebula astrology , let's hope that cruise operators take note of such concerns and make necessary improvements for a smoother and more inclusive experience for everyone.

I'm surprised that they don't have them. Sorry to hear it and hope it is fixed soon. I can't imagine how it was overlooked! Thanks for the information!!!!

Wife saw this...now SHE'S po'd.......denk u belly much...I WAS having a peaceful afternoon watching snow melt hehehehe

So write him a letter...even send it certified...is this in violation of some ADA rule??? If the "plan is in place" it usually takes an act of God to get it changed.....my wife uses a cane to get around...past few cruises she has availed herself of wheelchair services just for the purposes of getting up and down those ramps..they seem to be getting steeper as we age I guess..after that she's fine....but I can tell you there would be NO WAY I would let go of this. Turn it into a project. You just might wake someone on mahogany row with enough juice to have an effect...once they wake from their overpaid slumbers,,,good luck.
