1. Manage Medications
Our free travel checklist for seniors starts with some advice no senior should overlook. No matter where you go, it’s important to keep a few days’ worth of medications close at hand. It’s essential for air travel as access to checked luggage is basically impossible, and flight delays result in a time crunch if you must medicate multiple times a day.
Not to mention that bags can be lost, worsening the situation. If you take a liquid medication, talk to your doctor to get documentation stating your need to bring those medications with you on the board so flying rules can be navigated more easily.
2. Have Luggage Delivered
The next hack on our free travel checklist for seniors will definitely make your trip an ever more pleasant experience. Wouldn’t it be great to arrive at your destination without having to drag all that hefty baggage around?
Fortunately, someone who had the same question decided to do something about it and turn his idea into a real business. So now there are many delivery services like Luggage Forward that deliver luggage to over 200 countries and territories around the world. They can even ship bulky items like skis, snowboards, bikes, large suitcases, and golf clubs directly to a cruise ship or hotel.
This trick allows you to navigate through the airport with no excess baggage. For international travel, it could also save a lot of time in customs!
