Not a problem. I have found it absolutely find just say it’s on wheelchair and it’s electric and they don’t question, if they as to take it apart (only happened once to me) I just say it is to difficult and it need to stay together. They just put it in it own container, which means less chance of damage. Hope that helps.

Hi, there will be a video coming soon on this. However in summary the cruise ship was great and easily accessible. Getting off the ship was a bit tricky and it wasn’t fully lip free but they are willing to help. Biggest thing is that if you are wheelchair user that cannot walk at all or used an electric wheelchair you cannot get off on tenders with Virgin. Hope that helps

I'm so glad!

Hi, thank you for your comment. Firstly, well done on taking the step to book your first trip. That alone can be hard. You may have seen my Virgin Atlantic video? Regarding special assistance etc. if you can walk to far it may be helpful to hire a wheelchair or even invest in a light weight folding wheelchair (drive do a good travel one) this way you can use it in the airport and in holiday. For the seat ring Virgin and tell them you need a bulkhead seat next to toilet so you can have you bag by your feet and are near the toilet. Regarding medications etc if you have letter you will be fine, take enough it your hand luggage for 2 days extra just incase. If you have any specific questions please ask and I will try to answer them. I hope you have a great trip!

Hi, so exciting that you are going to Iceland, nice to of year to go too. Not to cold! When I was there I used the pavements mainly and bike lane here and there. It was pretty accessible and if you have a Triride I can’t foresee you have any issue with cobbles etc. Only slight issue I had was restaurants having steps. I had some people with me who would lift me but if that isn’t possible there are plenty that are wheelchair friendly. Any other questions please ask. Have great time.

I have a bicycle phone holder from Amazon’s attached to my Triride and then just use Google maps on my phone

Unfortunately so, disability is so expensive! It would be amazing if they could be more affordable

Have fun! Thank you

I didn’t reserve tickets in advance, just went to desk and they gave me ticket and a carer ticket but maybe email. You skip the big Q too!

they are sold by mobilty shops it shouldnt be hard to find a seller in the USA theres a dozen or more in the UK and even a page on facebook

Glad it was helpful, I hope you have a good trip!

Hi, I am so sorry. I didn’t see this but if it is still helpful here is the link! I hope you have a good trip! abnb.me/gD14JWVGQGb

How did it gp? Did you go to Coliseum? I will go to Rome with a mobility chair … how was the process of getting the tickets

@@manuelAAU620 Getting tickets at the Colosseum is really easy. You will see a really long queue for the colosseum, ignore it and go straight to the ticket office. Here you can by a discounted ticket for yourself and I believe they gave me a carer ticket free of charge as well. You can then go to the front of the long queue and go straight in. Hope that helps

@@abievans yes …thank you so much

Hello, sorry didn’t see this comment until now. Shame the paint is still there. Yes found the room noisy a lot. A banging noise at night? How did you find it?

@@abievans the room itself was fine but the crew door next to the cabin door was loud at all hours and the docking noise very early in the morning was horrible.

@@lescroft891 totally agree. Room was ideal! Did you complain about noise? When I did they acted like they never had a complaint but seem like a problem for more than just me!

@@abievanswe travelled in October we had more issues with the weather!

No problem 😊

@@abievans hey i've got a question. for when ur air travelling, anything u keep in mind or do for safety of ur wheelchair and triride? i knw baggage collection is notorious for lugging them around and causing damage. so was wondering if you had any tips to stay safe, since im lookin to get a triride soon :)

@@cllniya absolutely, all I do is make sure I keep the together. Don’t disconnect the Triride. Just remove the battery and take it in the cabin. This means it is around 25kg and so they have to carefully pick it up and also have to put it its own container and strap it in. So far the worst damage I have had is a snapped mud guard! Hope that helps. 😊

thank u@@abievans ! very helpful

Thank you, it is definitely on my list!

You are so welcome!

Thank you, I did visit the museum (via a very cool round lift) forgot to film it though. Was very nice though!

Hi, That’s sounds great, it is something that takes a while to get used to that’s for sure. My top 3 tips would have to be: 1. Have a clear letter detailing everything you are taking through security. This way you can hand that over and they can look at everything you have and match it to what is listed in the letter. 2. Anything Medical can go in the hold for free. Take a letter saying you need this equipment and go to check in. They will check as many medical bags as you have - I always find it best to have these bags marked with medical equipment stickers. 3. Planned for the unexpected - we all hope that airline won’t loose our medical baggage but it can happen, so take enough feed in you’re carry on for at least your day of travel and 1/2 more. Bonus: if you are on a continuous feed, don’t sit in exit row or bulk head. As you can’t have anything on you’re person or by your feed during take off and landing. You will have to disconnected and reconnect after take off and again before landing. Good luck with the blog. Abi

Hi Owen, you can still get the push/pull ones. They were an option for me but I tried them but then discovered these more techie ones 😂 so when with these, 1. Because my mum drives it to and it was less bulky and 2. It looks cooler 😅

@@abievans Thanks for the reply, I agree they look much cooler 😅

Hi, you can rent the one off the street through apps like Dott and Lime (and they are left everywhere so you will never struggle to get one.) all you have to do is if you see one, download the app for the company it belongs to, sign up and scan the QR code on it and you are off.

Hi Owen, Thank you fro taking the time to check out my channel, I am glad you enjoyed the video. The Edge and Apex are identical ships and so I hope you got an idea of what an accessible cabin will be like from this video. I will be uploading an Edge overall review in the next few weeks. If you have any questions let me know. I will be going to on more cruises in the future and will make sure to keep creating content on them. Have a good day.
