Greetings Fellow AAA Travelers“Travel” can be interpreted differently from person to person.
To me, travel means opening up to a world unfamiliar to you
and immersing yourself in new places, ideas, and cultures.
When we travel, we become more independent and more
resourceful. You learn to take on new challenges with
excitement and become more compassionate and aware of
those around you and their situations.
Much like our everyday lives, when we travel, it’s easy to get
drawn back to destinations that we have visited previously,
as it is familiar to us. I encourage you step outside your
comfort zone and try something completely different. Here’s
something to consider.
In this issue, we are highlighting our travel partner, Avanti
Destinations, who is a big proponent of traveling year round.
They have developed a new product called GO365 which
includes a wide variety of customizable itineraries that
highlight the benefits of traveling to popular destinations
during off-peak times. Whether you’re interested in wintry
adventures or sunny beach escapes, Avanti’s global offerings
make any day the right time to travel.
If you’re looking for inspiration for your next adventure, I
encourage you to join us at a AAA Service Center event near
you! For a full listing of AAA Oregon/Idaho events, please visit
www.aaa.com/events.
So what are you waiting for? Go travel!

I recently went on an amazing
vacation to Maui. The island
itself is breathtaking: lush and
vibrant tropical plants scale
the hills and crystal clear
blue waters rush up to meet
the miles and miles of sandy
beaches. When traveling in
Maui, you must visit Frida’s Fish house in Lahaina.
The food was divine and service was impeccable.
Request a table outside, so you can soak up the
sun and enjoy your meal with an incredible view!
Helpful hint: don’t forget to apply your sunscreen,
even when the sun isn’t out.

When traveling with larger
families, it's best to think
about things that will make
your lodging easier and
more pleasant. Things like
complimentary breakfast
served by the hotel, a pool
for the kids, and multi-room
suites to give family members some downtime or
a quiet room for little ones to nap.
When planning activities for everyone to enjoy,
I recommend looking to the youngest and
oldest family members to see if the activity
is something everyone is able to do. Also
remember that you can plan activities that only
include the adults, such as a nice dinner out while
the children are in a children’s program.
Adding in grandparents, aunts, uncles and
cousins to a family vacation can be a wonderful
way to create moments and memories that will
be remembered for a lifetime.

Getting relatives together for a family
vacation can be a wonderful experience
but it may seem a little daunting. With
some help from a AAA Travel Professional
and a little advanced planning, you and
your family are sure to enjoy a seamless
and memorable experience!
When discussing potential destinations
for your family trip with your Travel
Professional, remember, there are as many
possibilities as there are family members.
Here are some criteria to consider:
Convenience
Select a location near a major airport so
it is easily accessible and offers service
from a variety of airlines.
Activities Choose an area that offers sightseeing and lots of activities.
There may be family members who will want to extend their
vacation and take side trips to local attractions.
Price
Exotic locations may be nice but are not practical for a
wide range of budgets, ages and interests. Choose an area
that will give you a price most families can afford. Cruise
ships and resorts are popular for family vacations because
of their all-inclusive pricing packages that include meals,
activities and shows. Baby-sitting is often available.
Preferences
Theme parks, like Disneyland, can be a wonderful location
for a family vacation. So can a cruise to Alaska, a resort
in the mountains, or a big hotel in a major metropolitan
area. Developing a consensus among relatives will help
broaden participation.
When picking a date, consider that families with school-
age children may find it easier to attend a vacation in the
summer or around a long holiday weekend. Depending
on the activities planned, choose the time of year with
appropriate weather. Your AAA Travel Professional can also
provide you with information on when a destination is less
crowded and whether off-season discounts are available.
For assistance planning your next family vacation, visit
your local AAA Service Center. Our Travel Professionals
can provide you with information on locations,
accommodations, transportation, group discounts, and
added benefits for you and your whole family to enjoy!

I recently had the
opportunity to experience
one of my bucket list
destinations, Croatia, at
the end of a week-long
tour of the Balkans. I was
able to explore Dubrovnik,
Croatia, which is an
amazing place located right on the beautiful
blue waters of the Adriatic Sea. I enjoyed
learning the history of the area, walking the old
city walls, and heading out into the sparkling
waters by ferry over to nearby island, Lokrum,
for a stroll and a coffee.
A highlight of my visit was eating a delicious
dinner at a local restaurant within old town and
enjoying magnificent views of the water below.
When I go back to Croatia one day, I will take a
sailing trip or explore one of the many national
parks of the country and delve further into the
heart of Croatia.

I had the great pleasure of cruising on the
Rhine River this summer with AmaWaterways.
I am an avid traveler, and in my experience,
there is not an easier or more relaxing vacation
than a river cruise in Europe. All of the details
are worked out for you with no packing and
unpacking in between cities. Being able to see
multiple countries is effortless and it's almost
as if the world comes to you. I would highly recommend it, as well
as AmaWaterways. Their customer service, dining experiences,
shore excursion options and amenities are second to none.

The Big Apple is one of my
favorite places to visit! From
the lights, glamour, Broadway
shows, and (my favorite) the
food, it’s no wonder that
New York is one of the most
popular travel destinations
in the world. New York is a
24-hour energetic city that offers something for
everyone, night and day. There is so much to do
and not enough time - no matter how long you plan
to stay. Check out some of the highlights: tour the
Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building, see
a live show, visit Rockefeller Center, explore Time
Square, and don’t forget to enjoy the pizza!

Travel SafeBy Anne McAlpin
You don’t want to worry about personal security when
you’re traveling, but it’s hard to avoid. Few things
ruin a trip quite like having your money and ID lost or
stolen. But how do you avoid letting security concerns
overwhelm your enjoyment of your trip? Here’s some
advice from years of travel experience.
1 If the loss of an item would ruin your trip (like your
passport or credit card) it should be kept in a
security wallet. The two most popular styles are the neck
wallet and the money belt, both worn under your clothes
and only accessed when you’re in a secure location. I
recommend keeping a small amount of money ($50) in
your handbag or pocket for minor expenses throughout
the day (like gelato) but large sums or cards stay
undercover in this security wallet.
2 Invest in a cross body bag. Again – your passport,
credit card and the bulk of your cash should stay
in your security wallet, but that still leaves your phone/
camera, walking cash, guidebook and sunglasses in
your day bag, and you don’t want to lose those either.
The easiest bag to keep an eye on is a cross-body bag
carried in front of you.
3 Protect your data. I always recommend a security
wallet that protects your items with RFID blocking
fabric so you can’t be “electronically pick-pocketed.”
RFID payment technology was designed to add
convenience to everyday life, but it can also offer a way
for thieves to obtain your data via scanner without ever
reaching into your bag.
Features to look for in a security wallet:
• RFID blocking technology
• Moisture wicking, breathable fabric
• Soft, elastic waistband or adjustable neck strap
• At least one zippered pocket for organization

Last year I took a wonderful trip
to Nicaragua and found it to be
truly a country of culture, from
music to art to cuisine. I found
that Central America offers the
most amazing ceviche and fresh-
squeezed tropical fruit juice,
which perfectly complement
the backdrop of lush plants and volcanoes and added
so much to my overall experience. The unique local
dishes tell a story and help to really connect you to the
destination you are visiting.

Last fall, I was lucky to
experience all the glory
that is the Grand Canyon
in Arizona. From my first
glimpse of the Canyon at
Mather Point to the quiet
peacefulness of the sunset,
I was left speechless. I took
the train to the Canyon and the shuttle system in
the Park was easy to navigate. Transportation was
a breeze and I never felt at a loss of how to reach
all the spectacular viewpoints. I may have left the
Canyon but it will always be in my heart.

Royal Caribbean International® believes the best vacations
come without limitations. That’s why they’re committed to
providing accessible cruise vacation experiences to their
guests with disabilities and special needs by outfitting
their ships with a wide variety of features designed to give
access to all.
ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE
Royal Caribbean can arrange for accessible transportation
to transfer guests between the airport and the pier, offered
at no extra charge to air/sea guests or those who have
purchased cruise-only transfers. Guests in wheelchairs
or with mobility disabilities can also request boarding
and departure assistance, and wheelchair assistance for
boarding is available from the terminal check-in to the ship.
Be sure to request these services through your AAA Travel
Agent in advance.
ROOM ACCESSIBILITY
Royal Caribbean’s accessible staterooms are designed
for guests with mobility disabilities and other disabilities.
Accessible staterooms are spacious, ranging from 159 to 298
square feet, and offer a five-foot turning radius in sleeping
areas, bathrooms, and sitting areas for easy maneuverability,
allowing you to live comfortably on your trip.
SHORE EXCURSIONS
You can also immerse yourself in Royal Caribbean’s
destinations with Accessible Shore Excursions, which are
designed to accommodate scooters, wheelchairs, walkers
and more. You’ll experience the authentic culture of the
visited ports, and will be provided with comfortable,
accessible transportation and knowledgeable, local
independent experts.
Going well beyond a quick drive around an island, small
group tours also provide in-depth vacation experiences
with excellent accessibility features, such as:
• Accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts or ramps
• Accessible attractions with flat or ramped entrances
• Accessible bathrooms with wide doors for wheelchairs
• Step-free routes that avoid steps, stairs, and curbs
• Experienced local independent operators familiar with
accessibility needs
AUTISM & DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY ACCOMMODATIONS
Royal Caribbean offers a friendly environment for
families living with autism, Down syndrome and other
developmental disabilities. This includes sensory-friendly
films and toys, dietary menu options, and overall autism-
friendly training for Adventure Ocean staff and more.
These products and services include:
• Priority check-in, boarding and departure
• Special dietary accommodations including gluten-free
and dairy-free
• Adventure Ocean flexible grouping by ability for children
3 to 11 years old
• Pagers/phones for parents of children in the Adventure
Ocean program while signed into their care
VISUAL & HEARING DISABILITIES
Royal Caribbean’s goal is that all guests enjoy their cruise
vacation to the fullest. They’re determined to make the
cruising experience as convenient and enjoyable as possible
for guests who are blind or have low vision, and guests who
are deaf or hard of hearing. Their ships incorporate Braille
in public areas and elevators, and they also offer large-print
menus, braille signage throughout ships, and orientation
tours. Service animals are welcomed onboard, too. Royal
Caribbean also offers a portable kit for your stateroom,
teletypewriters for stateroom, amplified telephones,
assistive listening systems in theatres, close-captioned
televisions, and sign language interpreting services.
Royal Caribbean has always believed that discovering and
exploring the world around us is something that everyone
should be able to enjoy, and over the years they've been
an industry leader in providing the finest cruise vacation
experience for all of their guests. Though Royal Caribbean
doesn’t require information about the type or extent
of your disability, it is in your best interest to share any
specific requirements you may have with your AAA Travel
Professional as soon as possible so they can help guarantee
availability of equipment or services you may need.
Every year, thousands of guests with disabilities and special
needs sail on Royal Caribbean International. Wherever
their ships can go, you can, too – on a cruise designed to
wow and accommodate you!

I recently made my annual Disney
trip to enjoy Halloween time at
Disneyland. I highly recommend
attending Mickey’s Halloween
Party! Those visiting the park
dress up as their favorite Disney
character and trick-or-treat their
way through the park and ride with
very limited wait times. I loved the Halloween-themed
parade which featured the Headless Horseman making
his way down Main Street. There is something magical
about holiday-themed vacations and special interest
travel. I would highly recommend it!
