Seniorlife Online - Protect Yourself

Ask the ticket agent about senior-citizen rates. Also ask if the fare quoted is the cheapest available and if the ticket is refundable.
Inform the ticket agent of your dietary needs when making reservations. Low-fat, low-sodium, vegetarian or other special meals must be ordered in advance.
Request bulkhead seats when flying with small children. This way the children will not disturb other passengers.
Remove old flight-destination tags from your luggage. Automatic scanners may send your bags to the wrong airport. Indicate only your name and destination on the tag attached to the outside of your luggage. Tape your office address, telephone number and itinerary inside each locked bag.
