What does accessible travel mean to us?
Traveling with a disability or mobility impairment looks different for everyone.
Jodie is an above-the-knee, or ATK, amputee. She augments her mobility and walking with a prosthetic leg and one or two trekking poles. What Jodie takes into account for our travels and her mobility is similar to what other people consider, such as:
- People with bad knees, hips, feet, and/or backs
- Senior citizens
- Pregnant people
- People wearing a baby or using a stroller
- Families traveling with small children
