Hello all! We're going on our first cruise in March on the Fantasy. We are all super excited! I was hoping to get some advice from anyone who has been there and done that. Our DS has a rare chromosome abnormality which led to various developmental delays. At this point, he's just about 4 1/2 and not potty trained yet. He'll be turning 5 on the cruise and we're very much hoping he'll be there by then, but I'm a realist, and it's possible that he won't be.
I know they require potty training for the kids club. But I've also heard that they are VERY accommodating to kids with disabilities. Is there any accommodation on the pottying? Would they allow him to wear pull ups and then call us to change him if need be, or would they possibly change him in the nursery? I'm ok with either one, I'd just hate to have him not be able to experience the club with his sister, especially since I know he can't use the pools if he isn't potty trained.
Any help is welcome!! He also has apraxia of speech and so is (right now) largely non-verbal, but that doesn't concern me nearly as much as the potty stuff.
