Hoping to do a long weekend, not too far, trip to Put-in-Bay.  I thought I could use gas and look through restaurant AARP discount offers to save a few bucks.

My husband and I would love to go to Greece in the early fall.  We are hoping current family obligations will improve and we will be able to feel comfortable getting away for 10 to 14 days.  Will look through travel offers (particularly cruise ships through AARP.  Fingers crossed!

I'm hoping to take a cruise and will look on the AARP Travel Center and hopefully combine a deal there with one of the discounted gift cards one can buy from AARP Rewards.

My wife and I plan to go to Nebraska to visit my 94 years old mother. I have leukemia and haven’t been allowed to travel for over a year. The doctor gave me the ok to visit her before I have a bone marrow transplant. We will use our Aarp rewards to help with the cost of fuel, restaurants and hotels for the1200 mile round trip. We have saved a lot with Aarp in the past.

We will be going to our time share condo at the beach, as we do every year. It may not be varied, but we like it. I used my points for gift cards to places I would normally go anyway.

I plan on traveling to Scotland with an organized group tour that was postponed from a previous time due to covid.  Scotland does not have any covid test requirements t6o enter and I hope the USA will no longer require a negative test to re enter the USA.  I have an AARP credit card which will help pay for things as it does not charge extra for overseas transaction

My husband and are going to celebrate our 40th anniversary with a month long road trip.  We moved to Colorado from Indiana to move in with our son to help care for our 1st and only grandchild, Cole.  He will be 16 months old during our month off from grandparent duties.  We will be visiting our other son and wife in Indy, IN.  We have not seen them since their wedding last July.  We will spend the rest of our time visiting various friends and family in Cincinnati, OH, Evansville, IN and St.Louis area.  We will use AARP app to check gas prices and use various coupons purchased with our rewards points to save money on our trip.

I will go to see my 95 year old mother who has been a half a country away in a nursing home during COVID! I talk with her almost daily, but I have not seen her in 3 years.  I just booked my flights tonight!  I will also get to see my 3 siblings & their families who live in that area.

I live in California, in the far northwestern corner of the State, and will be flying to Syracuse, NY this summer for a family reunion in the Finger Lakes region. I've been saving up some of the restaurant Gift Cards I've won or purchased throught the AARP Rewards Program, and I plan to use as many as I can during my 3-week vacay with family and old friends in central New York State. Really looking forward to my trip!
