Default Request for the group

In my real life I am a freelance writer. I have been given an assignment
by a magazine for people with arthritis to write an article on traveling
with the disease. I have a couple of docs to talk to about medical side,
but need to talk to someone about the planning side (how to make
arrangements for things like scooters, where to get information on
accessibility issues for hotels, sightseeing, transportation, etc). If
anyone can send me in the direction of a TA that specializes in helping
people with mobility and health issues or a professional group that
could help me get in touch with one, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.


Kurt, on one of my cruises I met a woman whose business was organizing
travel and cruises for disable people. We briefly discussed all those
issues you raise. She was on that cruise to check out the ship. I wish I
still had her card to give you but I don't. You could try to Google up
disabled cruise agency travel and see if something comes up....?
