You would like to send a senior on a wonderful vacation but you are worried about the accommodations and flight. You want to make sure the trip is suitable for an elderly person. Follow these tips to book travel for a senior.

Instructions

    1

    Talk to the senior. Make sure you know exactly what kind of trip they want. Find out how much they want to spend and where they want to go. Ask the senior about any health issues they have so that you can accommodate those when booking.

    Join a travel club like Leigh Travel to speak to travelers of different ages. You can get recommendations, tips and warnings from other seniors. Find out the best places to visit from those who have already been there.

    Check the Trip Advisor website for travel hints and warnings. This site displays information from other travelers. Pay special attention to the advice from other seniors about what they liked and didn't like about the trip.

    Join a senior club or organization. You can join online or locally. Most cities offer clubs for seniors that cover many hobbies and interests. Visit a senior group and ask about travel information.

    5

    Look for travel discounts on bus trips, flights, tours and accommodations. Many travel companies offer discounts to seniors. Many also book trips for the senior crowd.

    6

    Go to your local travel agent. Ask about trips for seniors. Ask about special accommodations like help getting on and off the plane, medical help or even help picking a suitable trip. Make sure you ask for senior discounts too.
