…charge?
My husband and I would like to vacation in Alaska. This means that we would board an airline, fly to Vancouver and stay a day or two. Then board a cruse ship to Alaska. Then get on a bus to go to Denali, than a train to Fairbanks. He is not comfortable in a wheel chair. He can walk about 50 yards before the pain sets in.
Do you know if taking a scooter along is feasible? What about extra charges?
Thank you for your help. The travel agent couldn’t give me much information.

I’ve been visually impaired all my life but six months ago I woke up and my right leg was paralized. I have been walking with forearms crutches ever since, back in Janurary I asked my neuro doctor to right a script for a electric wheelchair, so I can learn O&M skills and become as independent as I once was. now I’ve been waiting for five months and the outfiter called us to tell us that are claim was denied due to my blindness. is that really there decision if the doctor deemed it medically nessary? I’ve been waitng for a long time and I’m ready to move on. I’m tired of the this red tape crap. I NEED a wheelchair for college. as i can’t safely travel on my own with my hands tied to crutches.

Travelers need to get out to explore the host city, investigate the exhibits of a museum, or simply share the joy of being with others along a busy boardwalk in order to be able to get the full travel experience. Some people have trouble doing those wonderful things. If you or a loved one have COPD, amputations, or serious arthritis, there is no need to skip out on those important joys of travel.
A number of companies now offer relatively inexpensive solutions in the form of electric mobility scooters specifically designed with travel for the disabled in mind.
One of those is the Zip’r Zipr Break Down Electric Travel Scooter, pictured above. The heaviest piece in this easy-to-assemble mobility scooter is only 29 pounds. Like other more expensive alternatives, it has a re-chargeable battery. You should expect to be able to travel about ten miles before the next charge is necessary. The seat folds for more compact storage. The tires are absolutely flat free, so there is no need to carry along a tire repair kit.
Amazingly, this travel scooter can be fully assembled and ready to go in less than twenty seconds. There are no wires to connect, since the battery box fits neatly into its own slot and automatically makes all necessary connections.
The maximum speed is a bit over four miles per hour–enough to keep up with even the brisk walkers in your travel group.
This handy scooter is just one of many options. To compare this to other travel mobility scooters, you should click here to see other popular alternatives.
