I'm so happy for you all. The boys are adorable.

[@spiderine1prime]

Your nephews are so adorable! 💗I had no idea there was a focus on wheelchair accomodations here, and I was pleasantly surprised. I know you have a certain way of titling your episodes, but the next time you cruise with disabled passengers, I think it might be very helpful to title it something that refers to accessibility. It might help some people find it who really need the information. Thank you!

[@amysink9825]

Love your nephews. So handsome and polite. They do a great job discussing the changes that they think need to be made for accessibility. The airport and plane issues shouldn't even have happened in this day and age. Now you need to take them on a bunch of different cruises to show accessibility issues on all the different cruise lines. Keep up the great content. Safe travels

[@ItsDrDo]

The length of a plane is not a short distance, to a fully mobile person maybe, to someone with a disability its a huge challenge , my now ex had this issue many times, someone once even said she was using her wheelchair for clout when she moved out of it and walk to her seat, 3 days later we were in the hospital, saw the same person there and i have never seen anyone have a sudden realisation of what being disabled means, thank you for raising awareness!!!

[@ItsDrDo]

To add, you two might be out of a job right now!!!

As someone who has taken care of children and adults with disabilities for overr 20 years, I can't tell you how much I love you guys and appreciate you guys for the wonderful time you showed your precious nephews.God bless their souls. P.S. it Is an utter disgrace in 2024 that major airports and facilities for the public in first world countries do not have proper accessibility for people with wheelchairs and other disabilities. It is a disgrace and an outrage

i came here to say the same :) i normally can´t watch videos with children in it because they can be quite annoying (yes i know, don´t come for me. I enjoy my adults only vacations). But these two, are such nice and clever kids. I´m happy for them, that they got to enjoy this cruise with their family and probably the best uncles one can have.

[@4kboodle]

First of all, I love the boys!!And as a handicapped cruiser it was nice to see it from their point of view. Celebrity is one of the few cruise lines that I haven’t been on so I definitely have it on my bucket list. Thanks for your wonderful blogs and your honest opinions!! As a foodie, I love your enthusiasm for the food. A drooling experience!

[@isabellindlind]

@@4kboodle I'm very disgusted by the people at Manchester Airport and their treatment of disabled people. Do these people have any idea that being dismissive and/or treating any human being as less-than may roll off their shoulder but if the roles were reversed, they'd never forget that anyone could be so heartless over something they cannot possibly help. These are children! They were going on the trip of a lifetime and how dare ANYONE not give them the respect they are entitled to like every other human being who hasn't done anything wrong!!! OOOOOH, I'm so mad!

The people who take the handicapped seating truly do not think about those that need it 😢. So glad the boys had a great time. Their happy faces were a delight!

[@barbita65]

If I were David or Ben, I'd have approached the people in the handicapped seating (especially the wheelchair-specific seats) and politely asked if they needed the accommodation. People might be oblivious, but I think most would be horrified if they realized they were taking seats from two young children in wheelchairs who need them.

[@marias902]

Seriously?! The issue of improving accessibility went in the other direction post Covid? That is really sad to hear. The level of travel increased incredibly in the past three years, yet it’s disheartening to hear that disabled folks have it harder than before.

[@lisagray1418]

I’ve yet to watch the entire video and am already blessed and saddened by what I’ve seen. I became disabled about 12 years ago, we quit traveling for fun. It’s hard to pay to travel and then pay extra because you’re disabled, plus the availability of activities is often hit and miss. What hit me so hard was when one of the boys said their neck would be sore from looking up. My husband often tells me to write a book. I tell him only if I title it “Life at Butt Level.” People often don’t think to move out of my way, but I would genuinely hope people would move out of the way of children in wheelchairs. God bless you for instilling a love for cruising in y’all’s nephews. I’m looking forward to the rest of your video.

[@FLYINGWARRIOR19661]

Same here, I had to post a comment just as they passed the threshold of the ship

[@Allthathingss]

I love that title!!! Your husband sounds lovely to encourage you to be a voice for others ❤.

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you for sharing your experience. We are really moved by your story and understand how challenging it can be to travel with a disability. It’s a shame when travel can feel like more of a struggle than a joy. Thanks again for your heartfelt comment.

[@donnaf422]

I've had to spend some time only occassionally in a wheelchair because of surgeries. It REALLY helps you to understand in just a very small way what people feel that spend their lives in one. Maybe a couple of weeks of wheelchair life for everyone might change people's perspective of what so many people go through every day. It's horrible about the lack of accessability in sooo many places. EVERYONE should be able to get to everything they want to see and experience. And the stares and stupid things people say to people in wheelchairs, it's terrible. And I totally agree with your title...and if these people would see what YOU see they might cover up that ugly thing better 🙂

[@billbruff9613]

Your nephews are amazing ambassadors for the community living with disabilities. Thank you and all your family for providing us with this much underrepresented view of cruising.

In the US, the requirements for public spaces are part of federal law. Mom usually travels with a wheelchair. We are allowed to pre board. The airline has people who will push her where we need to go which means I can handle the carryon luggage. We are going on our first cruise since she needs a wheelchair for distances. We will see how it goes in March. Thanks for showing assessability

I am only halfway though this video and I felt like I should throw down some thoughts. First, those two little men are so amazing.

They have an absolute calling for the camera with their personalities. I can see them starting their own channel at some point. Helping so many others with traveling and getting around in todays world and being the best.... Ben and David you are such a wonderful couple and I love when you mention your family.

You two are such an inspiration for more people you will ever know and understand... love from Boston.....

So happy for the kids enjoying their cruise & their room , they are very well mannered & adorable 😊✌🏼

[@rallegra]

I work in the disability field in the US. I’m glad to see the generally positive notes about the ship’s access. I remember, when the ADA was passed here, that cruise lines would give disabled people free trips to evaluate the accessibility and give feedback. Some of the access features we see today are a result of that work. Keep giving the cruise lines feedback. (That mirrored hallway with the stairs looks like a potential nightmare for a blind person but it’d be good to hear what they’d have to say). Thank you 😘

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you for sharing your insights and experiences. It's great to see the positive impact of the ADA on accessibility. We'll definitely keep providing feedback to cruise lines to help improve accessibility for everyone

[@lindabudney6737]

This is fantastic! Not only are your nephews adorable (and even know about brioche rolls and Michelin ratings) but they are so gracious to share their experiences being in wheelchairs. I’m recommending this video to anyone concerned about accessibility-even if they’re not going on Celebrity they’ll know what questions to ask. Thanks so much.

[@Cruisewith]

Haha they love their food!

[@michaelcoretto9629]

What a wonderful family trip. Your nephews are natural KZbinrs! My wife uses a wheelchair most of the time, she is able to walk short distances. As the “pusher”, I agree with your nephew that carpets can be difficult. So is the luggage on the first and last day, as you stated. We have also find challenges with people who leave room service trays outside their door and the stateroom attendant carts if they are in the hallway. Oh, let’s not forget those red and green stateroom attendant laundry bags too!!! We have done all of the E-class ships and they truly are beautiful and pretty accessible. And yes, the wheelchair gets swabbed every time we get back on the ship.

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks for sharing your experiences! We're glad you enjoyed the video. It's great to hear from others who understand the challenges and joys of accessible travel.

[@vegaslady3732]

I did some traveling with a freind who had ALS & was w/c confined. The larger airlines were all very accommodating, allowing us to board first, providing "aisle chairs" which enabled easy movement on the plane, and even helped transfer him from the aisle chair to his seat. Since he needed help eating they held my meal until he was done so I could help him but still have a hot meal. This all definitely made travel easier, though using smaller airlines is probably more budget friendly. Great, informative vlog - thank you !

[@BritsAbroadTravelCruise]

Your nephews are an absolute joy, and a credit to your family. Witty, intelligent, charming, articulate. But what also impressed us was their real love of eating food that most kids their age would reject, and trying new foods for the first time. Its great to see.

[@audraolson8300]

Thank you so much! I have a son who has autism and is non-verbal. Although he is not in a wheelchair, he does require accommodations. Accessibility videos give me an idea of the overall attitude of a cruise line and how accommodating they will be. I know most people think every place is accommodating, especially with children, but when you need these services it becomes clear fast that that is not the case. Henry and Herbie did an excellent job! I would really love to see them take another cruise on a different line with you and compare. BTW I have a few favorite channels and have suggested to a few to do accessibility videos and you are the first to actually do one. Love, love, love your channel! This is my absolute favorite video of yours!

[@kookylass2594]

To be fair the sign said "guests with disabilities" the wheelchair picture doesn't mean wheelchair only. The wheelchair is the universal symbol for accessible. Not all disabilities are visible. Someone with heart issues or cancer for instance will look fine at a glance. I'm not saying the people using the tables were disabled, just something to keep in mind. As someone with hidden disabilities its not nice to be judged when using accessible spaces. Really enjoyed the video and love how you always go so in depth with the foodables :) Oh and the boys are adorable!

Unless you use a chair , you never think of all the little bits that we need . Our last cruise from Manchester airport was shocking too and even worse coming back as we had to wait an hr to get off the plane, as there was no one available to transport us or bring our wheelchair to the plane exit . One poor man’s very expensive chair was broken too 🤬. Doesn’t seem it’s improved much either . Glad to see your video today through different eyes . Lovely kids ❤.

As a person with mobility problems myself I am grateful you two did a video highlighting the pros and cons of traveling and cruising from the point of view of a person with disabilities. I haven’t had a chance to cruise but I do fly periodically. At YYC my home airport, I have always been treated with respect, the security never make me stand if I’m unable to, they screen me with the wand instead of making me walk through the scanner. If I do walk through one of the officers takes my hand while my cane is put through the scanner. Very considerate of people with disabilities considering YYC is a big busy airport. Also I always fly WestJet and they are fantastic from check in to the time I get to my destination. They provide a chair and a staff member to get me from check in through security and on to the plane. I’m boarded first so I don’t hold up other passengers or get pushed around. Also they disembark me first and a chair and staff meet me as soon as I step off the plane and they stay with me until my family find me. I have never had a bad experience with WestJet. So if anyone with disabilities is traveling to Canada I recommend WestJet. All in all a fantastic video and I’m glad the twins had a wonderful cruise.

Those boys are great. I am a disabled traveller from Canada but originally from Hull, Yorkshire so I understood them just fine. We travelled on the Ascent last year and it was wonderful. One addition regarding accessibility is that it is very difficult to book an accessible cabin. Like people who sit in those accessible seats and don't need to. People actually book accessible cabins who don't need them, stopping those of us that do need them from cruising at all.

Hubby and I just did our first cruise with hubby in a wheelchair . The only barriers we found was the luggage in the hallways and when they were cleaning the cleaning carts . We got so we would move the cards or the stewards would hear us and come and help . The crew on the Ruby Princess was wonderful. The help we had getting on and off at the ports was wonderful. The was accessible room was amazing . One little problem was people pushing past us to get on the elevator. We just waited and went on a less busy one . I would say that it was amazing , we were able to access all the decks and venues .

I probably won't get there anyway. I'll just enjoy things through your eyes.

Fantastic video! The boys are so well spoken and enthusiastic. I loved experiencing it through them!

[@DebraMcCann-r9f]

So wonderful to see these clever articulate young men experience their first cruise.

Bless you both for doing this video! I am not wheelchair bound but have severely arthritic knees, so sometimes handicapped features are helpful in a cruise cabin. Celebrity is now on my list of lines to try. Your nephews are adorable and it was great to hear a young person’s take on accessibility features. Having this issue with my knees these past few years has opened up my eyes that we have so much work to do for accessibility, even in newer airports. Thank you again SO much for this video!❤

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you so much! We're glad you found the video helpful. Celebrity is definitely worth a try for their accessibility features. Our nephews had a great time sharing their perspectives.

Henry and Herbie have stolen my heart! I am late to catching up on this series but I always love seeing you enjoy cruising with your family. You guys are the best!

[@suzyparish]

Love your nephews! They are adorable. Thanks so much for making a video concentrating on accessible issues. I received a degree in occupational therapy years ago, and my heart has always been in this field. With so many technological advancements, I hoped we had improved things for those in wheelchairs. You guys exposed very basic problems, and I thank you so much for doing this. Maybe this video will spur someone on to make things better. Ben and David, I love you because you are so positive. Thank you for your channel.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the video and found it useful. Thanks again for being a part of our community! 🌟

I think everyone could learn a lot from these two young boys. From the cruise companies to the airlines they could provide valuable information. Their smiles and laughs could not have been any cuter. So happy for your family to have this lovely cruise. Cant wait to see them again. Disney? 🎉

We're glad you enjoyed the video and the boys' enthusiasm!

[@Michellesalot]

You guys are always so great at mentioning how accessible things are and now I know why, it’s because of how much you love your family and have empathy for those who may have different abilities than yourself. Thank you so much for doing what you do!

[@bunsterj]

The boys are delightful and articulate.

[@janicevanhaar5537]

This video is fantasic! We are taking my Mom on a Celebrity cruise next year to Alaska and she has disability issues as well, needing a walker or wheelchair. This is wonderful information and also shows people who do not have to deal with disabilities what it is like for people in wheelchairs. Thank you, this is so much appreciated. Love you guys!!

[@MsMegil]

What delightful boys! So exciting to see it from their point of view.

[@angelhixson466]

It is really wonderful that you are pointing out all the shortcomings of these places. When people don't live with the challenges like your nephews have I think their needs can become overlooked or not realized/understood. Your nephews are just wonderful. I bet they take over your channel someday with Oscar lol. As always I love your videos. I love when Ben says treat yourself and what I call his "Benisms". Slap a cherry on top and call me a sundae cuz you guys are great!❤

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're really glad our videos can highlight these important issues. The boys are amazing, and it's fun to imagine them taking over the channel someday with Oscar!

Brilliant vlog. So useful to get a first hand review of accessibility provisions. Henry and Herbie were fantastic, complete naturals.

[@OrdinaryDude]

Those two are naturals! What a great way to spotlight different ways that cruising is done. I never really thought about it, but this was a joy to watch.

[@ErinK-o3q]

Thank you for what you think is "petty" because for those who have these challenges it is their everyday experience.. you seeing thru their eyes and hopefully bringing attention to others will help bring change. You two are truly the best

[@bobmac6682]

You coldn't have said it better. Thank You!

[@reginestlouis636]

I took my brother who uses a wheelchair on an NCL cruise last month it was very nice, and he enjoyed the ship there were no problems maneuvering around, We had a blast on the JOY out of NYC.

[@frankgyure3154]

I rarely comment but your nephews are an absolute delight. ❤

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@HappyT111]

I have worked with children and young adults with additional needs for 33 years now and I have so enjoyed your vlog! What lovely boys you have there. Thanks for giving them a fantastic time ❤

[@NancyGates-b6y]

What lovely boys, they are so positive and happy. Loved this video.

[@andreamackay867]

What a beautifully important video. I hope RC group watches this. So amazing to hear directly from the boys about things that may have been missed for someone who needs accessibility.

[@fionacharrington7709]

The tears of happiness & joy are flowing from the absolute excitement of the boys for their first cruise! 🙌🏻🥰 They are both personalities and I’m here for it! 😎👊 Love the emergency bracelet for kids - makes sense really, more cruise lines should do that 🤔 Also love that the boys were open to trying different types of food 👍💜. You are both obviously really important role models for the boys - IMO boys especially, need strong role models to help ‘mould’ them into functional adults 😘

[@Cruisewith]

I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for your support! 😊👊
