When spinal cord injured individuals travel, they can relax, rejuvenate, and enjoy their lives.
They have to do additional planning to ensure stress-free travel.
Transportation is also becoming accessible with elevators, temporary ramps, and wider doors enabling spinal injured to get into trains. Traveling on flights can be easy due to the training given to airline staffs. But, traveling in buses has some restrictions.
For instance, when booking a hotel stay, they always have to see photos of the bedroom and bathroom on the web or ask for photos and videos from the hotel management.
They have to adequately plan their bladder and bowels schedules while traveling.
Attaching a larger leg bag, finding places to do catherization, and emptying the bowel before the journey can be useful.
