My husband and I are going to New Orleans for April vacation.  I planned most of the trip on AARP website and got gift cards to use there. It's our 1st time there and on both our bucket lists!

New to Florida so I plan on traveling to nearby counties and see what treasures they have to offer in the sunshine state. So many wonders to find in this state.

I plan to go on several overnight trips this year.  There are plenty of places that are close to home that I want to visit.  Haven't decided on exact ones yet.  Probably will decide at the last minute.  AARP gift cards are my best friend-- always use them every time I go anywhere.

Just retired and trying to go on as many trips as we can.  Just want to enjoy life!!   Using AARP for as many discounts as I can find.

I'm using my AARP membership for a hotel at the airport prior to flying to Costa Rica with my niece.  It will be wonderful as we've never traveled together and it's nice to have a younger travel companion.

I’ve been planning a trip with all 4 kids, their 10 kids, also the 6 great grandkids for a week of fun - relaxation- just getting away for the first time ever. For this trip I decided to get gift/ goody bags for everyone so the task of course included AARP rewards for anything available (gift yards, gift cards- gift cards & I’ve loved each & every minute of it 

Gotta Love AARP ❤️

[buppiesx2]

When planning any trip, I go to AARP site to get destination ideas & to get all discounts that I can use. I always save big when booking hotel stays & car rentals . My husband often wonders how we're able to afford such luxuries on a small budget.. thank you AARP!

[roger02]

I save up all of the gift cards I get on here, we use them for dining when we're on vacation. Our next plans are to take a cruise and I will use any offers here on AARP Rewards that I can find! Thanks for always having our back.

I was able to use a gift card purchased thru AARP for a vacation for my wife and I. The extra savings really helped. I plan on buy more this year for vacation.

My husband and I enjoy taking cruises mostly in the Caribbean. We’ve been on 11 cruises so far over the years since we got married. We are planning our next one for next Fall (our anniversary is Oct 1st) with Royal Caribbean Cruise lines. But now we can use our AARP to get a discount off the cruise. And any cruises in the future. Yah!!! 

[joliemisek]

I haven't been back to the Chicago area since my father passed in January 2020 and am living in Washington state with my husband. I need to travel to visit my mother, and see other family and friends. I am exploring travel options through AARP before the summer.

I would love to go , haven't been anywhere in several years see airbandb would be a blessing 

[HootieFan]

I already went on Spring Break to see some Spring Training games in Florida. I used AARP to get a discount on my airport parking! 

[Lapantera]

Good evening all. I have no plans as of yet. However, I would live to go to Hawaii. I love the tropical weather and the fruits. But, For now I using AARP discounts to help me with the purchase of a car. I even and applied to go and finish my Bachelors. 

[LouisE704491]

We primarily cruise on Carnival now that we have elevated frequent cruiser status and ALWAYS use AARP Carnival gift cards to get everything on and during the cruise at 10% off, including paying for the cruise, gratuities, drinks gambling (so I can loose money and save money at the same time!!!) specialty dining and excursions.  Even on-board jewelry and duty free charged to the room and pay the room bill with the gift cards. Sweet!  I buy more cards while on the cruise if I need them, but always have in hand what I expect to spend, just in case I can't connect or the cards sell out.  Cards don't expire, so no risk whatsoever if I have a few I don't need to use on this cruise.  Just use them next time.  Next year Austraila and then Europe the following year.

AARP Rewards gift cards for restaurants help me save when I travel and can’t cook in. Plus, it’s more fun to eat out at a discount!

[buffalo1974]

I use my AARP rewards to purchase Carnival gift cards for my next cruise. 

[lovies]

I use AARP Rewards for so many things -- gifts for my children, Airbnb stays, grocery shopping, etc.  We planned a family reunion with the kids and grandkids.  They wanted to go to TopGolf, so we saved money by purchasing gift cards for that activity.  It's such a great blessing to save money with AARP Rewards!
