<h3 style="text-align: left;">Hearing loop</h3>
We are able to offer a hearing loop facility (which requires you to move your hearing aid to the correct position) at Southampton cruise terminals and at the purser’s office onboard. In addition we also provide an ‘infra-red’ hearing support system within some of our theaters and onboard venues - compatible headsets (Listen technologies) are available from the purser’s office onboard.

&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Visual alert systems</h3>
A limited number of wireless visual alert systems and textphones are available onboard. The textphone system is subject to the availability of telephone lines onboard.

For guests who use their own devices and software for translation or conversion of information,&nbsp;please contact&nbsp;us via the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/contact-us">Contact Us</a>&nbsp;page and select the ‘Accessibility’ option from the dropdown list provided. A member of our White Star Support team will then be in contact to assist you further.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Subtitles</h3>
Our in-stateroom emergency video offers closed captioning. The televisions within the staterooms unfortunately don’t have closed captioning due to the way that the satellite signal is received.
&nbsp;
Should you wish to watch a DVD in your stateroom, we can provide access to a DVD player and a DVD library which contains closed captioning, subject to availability. Please speak to the purser’s office onboard for further information.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Theatre shows</h3>
We are able to provide a transcript of the songs during the theatre shows for deaf and hearing impaired guests. Please request this at reception or with a member of the production staff.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Shore Experiences</h3>
Providing that we are aware prior to sailing that you would like written commentary of an organised Shore Experience, we will work with the tour agent and endeavour to provide this for you. Please call our Customer Contact Center as soon as possible to request this.

For your own safety and comfort, guests who are blind must be registered for one-to-one assistance in the unlikely event of an emergency as a minimum. This should be completed at the time of booking. In the unlikely event of an emergency, you will be given the required assistance and led by a crew member to your assembly station.
You can notify us of more specific requirements once you have booked your cruise by completing the&nbsp;<a aria-label="Onboard needs questionnaire" title="Onboard needs questionnaire" href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/my-cunard/onboard-needs">onboard needs questionnaire on My Cunard</a>. This will help us to identify any extra services that may need to be considered, such as providing important information in an alternative format.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Large print and Braille</h3>
We are able to provide the following voyage information in large print:
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">Safety and emergency drill information</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Daily program (for guests that use a device that converts electronic documents, we can provide an electronic copy of the Daily Program for you each day. Please enquire with the purser’s office to request this service).</li>
</ul>
The safety and emergency drill information is available in Braille. The majority of our ships offer Braille stateroom numbers, Braille lift buttons/audio call signs. Our crew will also be on hand to assist you with directions if required.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Orientation tours and navigating the ship</h3>
For guests who are partially sighted or blind, we strongly recommend that you travel with someone who can support you. Please note that our onboard and Shore Experience staff are unable to provide long-term or sustained assistance to any guest.
If you are traveling&nbsp;with&nbsp;a sighted companion, we will be happy to give you a short orientation tour of the ship. This is completed as soon as possible after embarkation and will provide you with the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the location of key areas in relation to the position of your stateroom. To arrange this,&nbsp;please contact&nbsp;us via the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/contact-us">Contact Us</a>&nbsp;page and select the ‘Accessibility’ option from the dropdown list provided. A member of our White Star Support team will then be in contact to assist you further.
From a health and safety point of view, we need to ensure that&nbsp;guests traveling without a sighted companion&nbsp;can safely manage onboard and find their way independently to the main areas and locations around the ship. This is done via a mandatory orientation tour, which will be set up for you once you arrive onboard. Once you’ve completed the orientation, you’ll be asked to demonstrate that you can safely navigate to the muster station from your stateroom and other key areas.
Please note that if you are unable to demonstrate that you can navigate the ship independently, we may not be able to safely accommodate you onboard, in accordance with our Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) requirements.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Audio books</h3>
We have a variety of audio books available from the libraries onboard each Queen. All are available on CD.
Please note that the libraries do not have audio players, therefore you will need to bring your own.

We welcome passengers with intellectual, cognitive, and developmental disabilities on board all of our ships.
Guests who require the assistance of a carer at home, or who require assistance with day to day living, including moving around the ship, must travel with a companion that can provide the same level of care as they receive at home.
Once you have booked your cruise, please complete the&nbsp;<a aria-label="Onboard needs questionnaire" title="Onboard needs questionnaire" href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/my-cunard/onboard-needs">onboard needs questionnaire on My Cunard</a>&nbsp;to advise us of any cognitive disabilities and carer/companion details.

<h2>&nbsp;</h2>

We understand that not all disabilities are visible and that autism, dementia, anxiety and a visual or hearing impairment may affect individuals differently. We need to be made aware of any such information in advance of your vacation for your own safety and enjoyment. These are just a few examples of non-visible disabilities; there are many others that you could have and should tell us about. It is your responsibility to highlight anything that may have an impact on your well-being, your behavior and your enjoyment of your Cunard voyage.
Please note, your disability may mean that you would require assistance in the unlikely event of an emergency.
If you have non-visible disabilities and require assistance, please let us know by completing the&nbsp;<a title="Onboard needs questionnaire" href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/my-cunard/onboard-needs" aria-label="Onboard needs questionnaire">onboard needs questionnaire</a>&nbsp;after booking, and requesting assistance in the unlikely event of an emergency at the time of booking. Wearing the green Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Lanyard indicates that you need additional support or just a little more time. The lanyards are not currently available onboard, but all our staff have had training to understand what they mean.

We encourage all children to use our fantastic children's facilities onboard. However, we do not provide one-to-one support or care. If your child requires this, then a parent or carer will need to be present at all times.
If your child has a disability or medical requirements and would like to take part in our activity program, please speak with our youth teams when you are onboard. We kindly ask that you provide as much information as possible to support our Youth team caring for your child when registering your child to use the children's clubs, which you can do via My Cunard at 15 days before departure. You will also need to complete the&nbsp;<a title="Onboard needs questionnaire" href="https://www.cunard.com/en-us/my-cunard/onboard-needs" aria-label="Onboard needs questionnaire">onboard needs questionnaire</a>&nbsp;(also on My Cunard) as soon as possible after booking.

Vegetarian and vegan diets are catered to as standard across our fleet in all restaurants. You only need to tell us about these specific requirements if you’ve booked a flight through Cunard that includes a meal, so we can ensure the airline caters to you.

Pregnant guests can travel with us, however, we cannot accept guests who will be more than 23 weeks pregnant (i.e. 23 weeks + 1 day or more) at any time during the cruise.
Please advise us that you are expecting a baby as soon as possible.
