This SCI travel guide is from the American Spinal Injury Association and covers many topics relevant to travel as a person with SCI. Be aware that the legal information is from the United States but the rest of the information is applicable to all travellers.
This manual is created for novice SCI travelers as a starting point to explore the world. While it is intended to be a thorough resource, it is not meant to be an exhaustive one. This manual specifically highlights pre-travel preparations, emergency considerations, and the process of booking travel with a special focus on addressing durable medical equipment (DME) needs. It is organized with questions, resources, and travel tips that can be implemented for travel in local communities and around the world. The main goal is to help anticipate and navigate the challenges and barriers to accessible travel to encourage and inspire SCI individuals to travel.
