A Simple Travel Document Checklist for Veterans and Senior Travellers

Prepare one document folder containing valid identification, tickets, accommodation confirmations and the contact details of the person managing the booking. For international travel, review passport validity and the latest destination entry requirements well before departure.

Carry a current medicine list and any information that may be useful during assistance requests. Keep original documents secure and store protected digital copies where a trusted family member can access them if necessary.

Request mobility or airport assistance in advance when needed, and reconfirm it before travel. Arrive with adequate time for security and boarding so the journey can proceed without unnecessary pressure.
