Accessibility on Royal Caribbean cruise ships is some of the best I’ve encountered anywhere, especially on some of the newer ships.Accessibility features like automated doors in the windy areas of the ship, disabled lifts into the pools, and accessible theatre seating are just a few of the amenities that disabled cruisers will enjoy.

Three accessible Royal Caribbean cruise ships sail in the Mediterranean. Each is of a different ship class and each sails different itineraries. Some sail the same itineraries over and over.

The Splendour of the Seas is a Vision Class ship which is a few generations old. It primarily sails from Venice and was built in 1996. The Serenade of the Seas is a Radiance Class ship (which is newer than the Vision Class) and sails from Barcelona, Rome, and Venice. It was built in 2003 and has a 2490 passenger capacity.The Liberty of the Seas is part of one of the newest classes of Royal Caribbean ships, the Freedom Class, and was launched in 2007. It sails in the Western Mediterranean and you can board in Rome or Barcelona.
