    I’m going to Reno for a Spa Day with my daughter and friend. My daughter and I are planning her 2023 wedding and it’s getting a little tense. I will use a spa finder or housing reward.

    Since my 30’s I’ve wanted to see the fall colors. Never did because always had so many responsibilities. This fall I’m planning to fly from Puerto Rico and take a  train from Boston to Vermont (and back) for six days. I’ll be in paradise!

    Space-A travel is open again, so we will drive from our home in Wagener, SC, to Charleston AFB, board a C17 or C5 and fly to Rota Spain.  There we'll rent a car and drive to Portugal renting rooms while we explore the Faro area.  Along the way, we'll use the gift cards we've earned on AARP rewards.  We've already booked a Carnival cruise in December using the AARP discounts gift cards.  Our AARP gift cards are an excellent way to reduce our cost as we travel.

    My husband and I had planned a month long trip to Europe to celebrate our retirement, but had to cancel due to covid. Thanks to AARP, all of the lodging we chose, was fully refundable. Now that life has settled down, we are planning the same trip to France and Portugal in the fall. Lodging with AARP offers us many options using the suggested ratings, competitive prices, location and especially the option to receive a refund if needed. The other area we found AARP to be competitive was in the car rentals, saving us at least 25%. Whenever we travel whether in the US or Europe, we always bring our AARP membership card, and are able to save at least 10% at many restaurants and stores. Our membership has definitely been worth "every penny" because of the money it has saved us over the last 20 years. We have been members since 2002.

    I will be traveling to CA for family wedding and using AARP benefits to help with car rental. The price of gas combined with other travel expenses will be mitigated by the savings resulting from AARP membership.

    I am travelling to Kokomo, Indiana next month for the Kingdom Come Festival that I've missed the last few years.  Though AARP, I've joined the Best Western program and the Exxon Mobile program and will use those while I travel.  I always stop at Denny's a few times during my trips for their good food and great AARP discount.

    I am planning on traveling to Colorado to visit my daughter and her husband who lost everything due to the Marshall Wildfire.  Discounts and travel tips from AARP are very beneficial for my trip planning.

    After three years from making the initial reservation, we have finally gone on our cruise through the Panama Canal, going from Miami instead of Galveston, added Miami to the trip, no problem!  Ended in Seattle, so we added an Alaska cruise on the same ship!  Saved 10% on EVERYTHING by using Carnival Gift Cards to pay for cruise and on board expenses.  Great weather, so we got really lucky all the way around.  LCE in Texas
