Escorted Group Tours
and Cruises

The median age for cruisers on Oceania's ships is 67 years old, and understanding their clientele, the ships themselves are accessible. The accessible staterooms have wider doorways to the staterooms and bathrooms to accommodate wheelchairs; roll-in/roll-out showers; grab bars in the bathrooms; and an alert button. For guests who are deaf or hard of hearing, room kits featuring a visual and tactile alert system are available upon request and televisions provide close captioning on some channels.

Two points that guests with disabilities should be aware of include (1) The Main Lounge has one step that goes down to the dance floor; however, the ships have spaces reserved for wheelchairs that provide good sightlines to the shows; (2) The doors on the decks are wooden, not automatic. Guests should not be discouraged by this though as the ships have more than 400 staff members who are readily on hand to assist with opening doors. These staff members are also very accommodating with carrying trays on the buffet lines, getting drinks and providing unrivaled personalized service.

Other accessibility features include embarkation and debarkation assistance; accessible gaming; corridors that allow for 180 degree wheelchair turns; and Braille/tactile signage and elevator controls.

Oceania does not provide wheelchairs or scooters for their guests.
