Have any of you had experiences of fly/cruises with mobility scooters? Any input gratefully received! Many thanks Sheila Xx

Cruise lines nowadays require that your scooter be kept in your cabin when not in use. This almost certainly means that you will need special accommodation. You should also check if the Airline will accept scooters and, if so at what cost and under what conditions (such as secure storage of the batteries). The Airline will probably also require a Fitness to Fly (Medif) certificate. Also, you must be aware that medical treatment on cruise ships is expensive, and you must have appropriate insurance cover.
