Tips for Senior Travelers

    Mention the fact that you're a senior when you make your travel reservations. Although the major U.S. airlines have canceled their senior discount and coupon book programs, many Québec hotels offer discounts for seniors. Many theaters, museums, and other attractions offer reduced admission to people as young as 60.

    Members of AARP, 601 E St. NW, Washington, DC 20049 (tel. 888/687-2277; www.aarp.org), get discounts on hotels, airfares, and car rentals. Anyone over 50 can join.

    And don't forget to flash your AAA card if you have one. Members of the American Automobile Association get the same discounts as members of the CAA. That means reduced rates at many museums, hotels, and restaurants.

    Many reliable agencies and organizations target the 50-plus market. Elderhostel (tel. 800/454-5768; www.elderhostel.org) arranges worldwide study programs for those aged 55 and over and offers a variety of trips to Québec and Montréal.

    Publications with travel resources and discounts for seniors include the quarterly publication Travel 50 & Beyond (www.travel50andbeyond.com) and the best-selling paperback Unbelievably Good Deals and Great Adventures That You Absolutely Can't Get Unless You're Over 50 2005-2006, 16th Edition (McGraw-Hill), by Joann Rattner Heilman.
