OK so you heading towards retirement and its time to splash out on some long deserved travel.Many travellers over the age of 50 or 55 don't realize that age has its discounts in the travel marketplace. When your booking your travel always carry your ID card with your birth date and ask if there are any special 'seniors discounts'. Here are just a handful we have found:* Free cruises for single men.Because unattached males over a certain age are rarer then hens teeth two cruise lines , Royal Cruise Lines and Delta Queen Steamboat Co, offer free travel to single men over 50 who will act as paid hosts for single woman on board the ship. Duties include dancing,dinner parties and mingling - but please no 'funny' business !
*Great Britain Heritage Pass. Gets you into over 600 castles, palaces & homes. Contact the British Tourist Authority.
*Great Britain By Rail. Whopping seniors discounts on first class travel throughout the UK.
*National Parks Passport in the USA. Lifetime admission to all US Federal Parks,monuments and recreation areas if your over 62 and discounts on camping,boat launching etc. Contact National Park Service.
*Travel Discounts. Always ask if your airline, car rental company or hotels offer 'seniors discounts'. You will normally find you get a 10% cut. Sam applies for Car Insurance.
