About Kathryn Lyn
The short answer
Kathryn Lyn is a second-generation cruise professional with more than fifteen years in the cruise business. She grew up on ships: both of her parents worked for a cruise line, and they met working for Cunard. She runs Travelin' With Kathryn Lyn from Fort Myers, Florida.
Why this site exists
Older travelers ask the same careful questions: Can I get around the ship? What if I need oxygen or dialysis? Will Medicare cover me? Can I go on my own? The answers are scattered across dozens of cruise-line pages. This site gathers them in one place, in large print, with every rule linked to its source.
Where she has sailed
Kathryn has sailed with Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Princess, Celebrity, MSC, Virgin Voyages and Cunard, and stayed in MSC Yacht Club and Norwegian's Haven.
How the advice is checked
The guidance here is general. Cruise-line rules and Medicare rules are quoted from each organization's own website, with the date they were checked. Lines change their rules; when a rule matters to your trip, confirm it with your line before you sail. Kathryn is a travel advisor, not a doctor or an insurance agent.
