Know your battery
If flying with a motorized wheelchair or scooter, bring documentation that describes whether the device is powered by a wet, dry, or gel battery. The battery type determines whether the battery must be removed for transit in the airplane (gel typically does not need to be removed).
LATEST DESTINATION REVIEWS
Colon, Colon Province, Panama
Colon, the second largest city of Panama, is a port town that features a duty free shopping district and access to the Panama Canal. While definitely worth the visit, Colon can be difficult to access for the physically challenged traveler, as one must utilize ground transportation to see more than just the portside shops. On our visit to the canal, we were able to see two ships pass through the locks, which was an amazing sight.
Puerto Limon, Limon, Costa Rica
Puerto Limon is the capital of the Limon Province in Costa Rica. There are a few tour companies that cater to the physically challenged traveler, allowing access to this beautiful country beyond the cruise port.
Belize City, Belize
Belize City is the largest city and principle port in Belize. It is located on the site of what was once the capital of Belize, which was moved in l970 after the town was devastated by a hurricane in 1961. Belize continues to emerge as a destination for tourism, but is limited in its offerings for the physically challenged traveler.
