Senior Travel Checklist and Packing Tips


Category: Senior travel luggage Buying Guides

Having difficulty packing for your travels? Yeah, packing can be really hard-a trivial mistake may spoil your entire trip.
Here, we offer some useful packing tips to ensure you a happy and worry-free journey.

I. Essential travel proofs
Bring the latest travel documents such as ID card, passports, visas, vaccination certificate and more. You'd better put the originals in your money belt or inside pocket for the sake of safety.

Senior citizens may have some special medical conditions, but medicines are banned in most traffic centers. It is necessary for you to bring letters of your doctor and medical reports to prove that all the medicines are crucial to your health. One more thing is to ask general prescription list of your medicine from your doctor to ensure that you can buy medicine at traveling destination if necessary. Take the list with you all the time.

II. Daily necessities
Bring personal toiletries such as tooth brush, tooth paste, comb, cosmetics and more. Though they are of little importance, it will drive you nuts when you need them but can't get any.

Bring two pairs of dark-colored and easy-walking sneakers or flatties. Put them in shoe bags or shoe cases because they get dirty easily in traveling. If you don't have shoe bags or cases, keep them in plastic bags.

Prepare daily clothes according to the weather at your destination. In hot places, T-shirt, skirt, and shorts are suitable, while sweater, overcoat, and trousers are necessary in cold places. Don't forget to bring underwear and socks (at least 3 of each).

For lightweight clothes, you can roll them together to save space. As for the heavy clothes, you should fold them to spare more room for other items. Besides, you can stuff the small items between or inside larger ones. For example, you can put socks into clean shoes.

Dress comfortable and leisurely to enhance your mobility. If you have special events, prepare one set of formal clothes such as business suit for man and evening clothes for woman.

Prepare some reading material or entertainment such as newspaper or MP3 if you will spend a long time on the way.

III. Electronics
Communication tool is very important especially when you are in difficulty. Don't forget to bring a cell phone with you.

Portable cameras or vidicon can help you to record happy moment and enhance enjoyment during trip. Prepare an extra memory card for your digital device in case you use up all the memory.

Senior travel is challenging and inspiring. A good preparation plus extra caution and flexibility will ensure that you have an unforgettable and joyful traveling experience.
