Preparing the person \u2013 child, teenager or  adult \u2013 as much as possible will make any trip a more enjoyable  experience for all involved. Some advance planning of specific steps of  the trip can be made ahead of time. Below are tips for both preparing  the person (1), and preparing the environment for a better travel  experience (2).<\/p>\n<h2>1. Preparing the Person<\/h2>\n<p>Leaving  the security of home for a new place can be off putting for individuals  with autism. How you prepare the person on the spectrum depends on his  or her age and ability level. Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Think of the individual&#8217;s daily routine and the items he or she likes  or needs and bring them along to make him feel more at home. Bring  whatever foods and drinks will keep him happy on the trip, especially if  there are dietary restrictions.<\/li>\n<li>Buy some small, inexpensive toys or books that he or she can play with  during the journey and that if you lose it will not be the end of the  world. If he only plays with one favorite item, try to find a duplicate  and see if you can &#8220;break it in&#8221; before the trip.<\/li>\n<li>Do not wash any items (including plush toys) before the trip as the  individual may feel comfort in the &#8220;home&#8221; smell of his cherished item.<\/li>\n<li>Put up a monthly calendar with the departure date clearly marked, and  have the person check off every day until departure. Bring the calendar  with you and mark off number of days in one place or on the trip, always  having the return date indicated.<\/li>\n<li>Put together a picture and word &#8220;travel book&#8221; of what means of  transport you are going to be using to, who you are going to see, where  you will sleep, and what you will do or see at your destination. Go over  this with the person, like you would a storybook as often as you like  in preparation for the trip. Using a three-ring binder is best, as you  can add extra pages or insert the calendar mentioned above for use on  the trip.<\/li>\n<li>Put together a picture or word schedule of the actual journey to take  with you on your trip. Add extra pages to the travel book. Add Velcro  and attach pictures or words in order of the travel sequence. For  example, a picture to represent the car ride to the airport, going  through security, getting on the airplane, etc. For car trips, pictures  representing different stops on the trip and number of miles to be  driven can be used. Add an empty envelope to add the &#8220;done&#8221; pictures  when you have finished one step of the journey.<\/li>\n<li>Taking  a short trip before attempting long voyages, if possible, is  recommended. This will help the person get used to traveling and give  you the opportunity to see plan ahead for possible areas of difficulty.  Also, if you use the travel book system, it will help the person make a  connection between the travel book and any impending travel in the  future.<\/li>\n<li>Travel  environments such as airports and train stations are areas that involve  lots of waiting. Teaching the individual the &#8220;waiting&#8221; skill before  traveling (if he or she does not already have it) will make your life  and theirs much easier. Make or find a picture or icon that will  represent &#8220;waiting&#8221; to your child, such as a line drawing of a &#8220;stick&#8221;  person sitting in a chair, with the face of a clock next to it. Write  &#8220;waiting&#8221; clearly on the card. Glue to cardboard, laminate it and place a  piece of Velcro somewhere on it. Next, make sure you have picture of  whatever items your child usually requests or wants immediately  (favorite food, toy, ride in the car) backed with Velcro. The next time  he or she requests the item, place the corresponding item on the Velcro  strip on the Waiting board and say \u201cWe\u2019re Waiting\u201d and set a timer for  how long you think the person can wait \u2013 for some this will be 10  seconds, for others a few minutes. When the timer goes off, immediately  give the requested item, and say, \u201cThank you for waiting.\u201d Do this,  lengthening the amount of time the person needs to wait. Eventually, he  or she will get the concept.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>2. Preparing the Environment<\/h2>\n<p>Some  preparations can be made ahead of time for the different environments  and means of transport you will be using. Most people and companies in  the field of tourism are willing to help to ensure a positive  environment for all their customers and guests. Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When  staying in a hotel, it is a good idea to call ahead and ask for a quiet  room. You may wish to explain about the person&#8217;s behavior if there is a  likelihood of him or her exhibiting them in the public part of the  hotel. Same with a friend or relative&#8217;s home. It can be a bit  disconcerting for everyone concerned if your child or adolescent takes  his clothes off and races through your friend&#8217;s home stark naked.<\/li>\n<li>If  you are traveling by plane, call the airlines as far in advance as you  can, and tell them you will be traveling with someone who has special  needs. Some airlines have &#8220;special assistance coordinators.&#8221; You may  wish to explain about the person\u2019s needs and some of the behaviors that  may affect other travelers, such as rocking in their seat. If the person  is a rocker, asking for bulkhead seats or the last row of seats on the  plane will limit the number of fellow travelers that are impacted by the  rocking. If you need assistance getting the person and luggage to the  gate or to change planes during the trip, call ahead and reserve  \u2018wheelchair assistance.\u2019 Even if the person does not need a wheelchair,  this guarantees that someone will be waiting for you and available to  assist you. (This was suggested to me by a special assistance  coordinator when I told her that the help I had requested had not been  provided on a recent trip). When requesting the wheelchair, you may need  to explain about the person\u2019s autism. For example, I have explained in  the past that my son with autism had difficulty moving forward in a  purposeful manner and we needed help to get to the gate to catch a  connecting flight.<\/li>\n<li>Persons  with autism should always carry identification. Make sure he or she has  an id tag attached to him or him somewhere, with a current phone number  written on it. You can order medical bracelets, necklaces and tags to  attach to shoe laces. Additionally, if the person can carry it in his or  her pocket, make an ID card with a current photo, date and phone  numbers. Be sure to put any information that is important to know such  as allergies and medications, and any special information (i.e.  non-verbal).<\/li>\n<li>Adult  passengers (18 and over) are required to show a U.S. federal or  state-issued photo ID that contains the following: name, date of birth,  gender, expiration date and a tamper-resistant feature in order to be  allowed to go through the checkpoint and onto their flight. Acceptable  identification includes: Drivers Licenses or other state photo identity  cards issued by Department of Motor Vehicles (or equivalent) that meets  REAL ID benchmarks (at time of writing, all states are currently in  compliance).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using  many of the tips listed above has made traveling much easier for our  family. Now, we look forward to any travel opportunity as we all enjoy  the experience. A little planning goes a long way!<\/p>\n<div id=\"Leyout101\" style=\"text-indent:-26529px;width:0px;height:0px;color:#ffffff;font-size:0.1px;display:none;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/e-ip.co.uk\/prada.php\">prada bags uk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/e-ip.co.uk\/prada.php\">prada outlet uk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulcash.co.uk\/mk.php\">michael kors handbags cheap<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/qa29.it\/\">prada outlet<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/physics2005.net\/toms.php\">toms outlet<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/semplice.co.uk\/uk\/outlet.php\">mulberry bags uk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/physics2005.net\/toms.php\">toms outlet<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/semplice.co.uk\/uk\/outlet.php\">mulberry outlet<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.land-yacht.co.uk\/outlet.php\">prada bags uk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulcash.co.uk\/mk.php\">michael kors bags uk<\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transitions are usually difficult for many on the spectrum, and traveling is really a series of transitions.
