SPECIAL NEEDS 2

Mention the fact that you're a senior citizen when you first make your travel reservations. All major airlines and many hotels offer discounts for seniors. Major airlines also offer coupons for domestic travel for seniors over sixty. Typically a book of four coupons costs less than $700, which means you can fly anywhere in the continental U.S. for under $350 round-trip. In most cities, people over the age of GO qualify for reduced admission to theaters, museums, and other attractions, as well as discounted fares on public transportation.
Around the world, most countries won't consider you eligible for senior citizen's discount until you reach maybe 60 or 65 years of age. However, in Singapore it's common to see 55 as the starting age for benefits. My poor mother (who's not yet old enough to qualify back home) had a shock when she was asked her age at the National Museum. She saved a few dollars, but was a bit sore about it! Most attractions and museums have discounted admission for senior citizens. Hotels, airline, and tour operators will also quote you discounted package if you request senior rates.

The STB will also help plan your trip, and can offer its own advice for senior travelers. Regarding this service, here', my advice: If you work out your itinerary with the help of STB, make sure you're firm about time constraints. Many of the tours and daily itineraries are rushed, with little time for a rest and and thehe. A common complain is ryhaustton by the end of just I (lax. In thc hcat, this is not only uncomtortable, but dangerous as well.
