I cruise withy my elderly father. We originally wanted to do the May 21 - Jun 4 14 day cruise on the Zaandam but I have two nephews graduating from High School on May 31st, so we opted for the May 7 -21.
We took super shuttle to SFO. We were really sweating it and worried we were going to miss our flight to SEATAC. Supper Shuttle usually gives you a three hour time frame for pick-up prior to flight departure. This time we were only given two hours prior to pick-up.
The shuttle was an hour late. We got to the airport 1/2 hour prior to departure. Fortunately we got our bags checked in and was able to proceed through Security. Fortunately we were Pre-TSA and our flight was the first gate after security. We made it through Security 5 minutes prior to boarding. Enough time for my dad to get his rolling walker checked at the gate. Had a great flight to Seatac.
Cabin Review
Large Ocean-View Stateroom
Cabin EE
We had an Ambulatory Assesible Cabin which basically means the shower has grab bars and shower seat. My father has balancing issues and needs a shower seat. I heard from another fellow cruiser who has balancing issues requested a shower stool but they had a new regulation that cabins in the tub shower combination cannot have a shower stool. I do not know if this is fleet wide and have not verified the information. This cabin could accommodate my dad’s walker but It would not accommodate a wheel chair or Scooter.
