Barry I am on it, I am just trying to get in writingwhat is going on.
Since I am a travel agent, they have to give me some form of writing on this.
I got the department I have to write to and will keep you abreast of what is going on. No all the ships will not be offering it any longer.

Hello:
If this is true it is very sad. My wife and I were told that Braille
printers were on each ship of the fleet. Much of the time they are not used
but as for being broken my guess is that the persons who do the printing
have not read the instructions or have not loaded the proper drivers into
the computer. We just came back from a cruise in mid February and we had
Braille compass (the ships newspaper). I do not like the idea of having
someone read the compass to you very much but may have to live with it.
When my wife and I travel with another group on Carnival ships the travel
agent gets a crew member, usually one of the cruise director staff, to
record the event schedule each day and it is replayed on a TV channel. This
would be a great solution and even others who are not blind may appreciate
it also.
We may have to make a call to RCCL to investigate. We are Emerald level on
the Crown and anchor society and could switch easily to Carnival/Princess if
a sufficient answer is not provided.

You say the Braille printers have been broken every time you try to get an
agenda Brailed. Who has been Brailing the material for them?

well I am still investigating the whole thing. I don't like the answers I
am getting, and a few times that I had sent clients that needed Braille the
printers were broken.
