Interesting that RC wouldn't have a uniform policy statement when replying to requests for on board Segway use. I guess it is who you talk to at the moment.

I am in the process of researching the Segway and after market seat to best meet my needs in making the Segway a safe alternative mobility device. I have balance issues and have a slight concern about getting off the Segway in case of a shutdown. It's why I like the Kickstand option on the Right2B. I actually understand why cruiselines are reluctant to have a blanket Segway use policy for liability reasons if somebody falls on a shutdown mode, is injured onboard or in a retail business, and sues for injuries. Perhaps signing a waiver prior to boarding or maybe it is a non-issue.

To bad Segway doesn't offer a lever activated Kickstand option to actually stabilize the unit.
