What To Pack When You Are Travelling Alone At 80

By Anne Scots


At this time when you have an empty nest with all your children grown up and living their own successful lives, it's time to do the much delayed leisure you and your other half truly deserve: travelling. But how can aged people travel safely and unaided?

If you an aged couple who desires to travel independently, then there are ways you can make your travel sound, fun, and stress-free for you.

See Your Doctor And Make Sure You Have Prescriptions

Prior to your travel, see your physician for a check up and obtain an endorsement to travel. Get approval also for things you can do, like snorkeling or sun bathing. Also make certain that you get a prescription for medicines that you need, in addition to packing more than an adequate amount of prescription medicines to last the whole trip. Should you have any trouble, ask the health care provider for a counterpart or a colleague who is in the destination of your travel.

Get In And Out Of Travel Gates And Hotels The Fast Way

Get there fast and then take it slow is your travel motto. Do not get caught up in the traffic of vacationers whether in the airport or at the hotel. Make plans for for express check in, express booking, and all express where possible.

Make Airport Transfers Simple

Airport transfers are very important whether you are just traveling from the airport to your lodge or making a linking flight or taking the road to a remote destination from the airport. Make certain to book for a maxicab instead of a sedan, so that you can have a comfortable ride. Take into account that you require extra space for your leg room, luggage, and other medical apparatus such as a wheelchair which you can't live without throughout your travel. If possible, favor the services of a transport provider that assures gentle and capable drivers, seeing you are tender and fragile and could do with TLC.

You do not have to put off a travel particularly because in your golden years, you truly deserve to see and experience the world, something which is a struggle for most young families. Have a pleasurable trip, and stay safe. And keep in mind to smile for the camera at each stop.
