thank you both for your responses, and Lilly I will pursue this with the DOJ, if only to find out if cruise lines that board and disembark in the US are covered by the ADA.

So far I have had two responses from Celebrity, and like all comments you get on why people should discriminate against Segways, I am always amazed at the ignorance.

Comment one, they are not stable and therefore dangerous.

comment two, After checking this morning with our Accessibility Specialist, we were advised the policy was put in place by our Safety Officer after being advised by Segway that the mobility device was not recommended in a marine environment.
