With Hurricane Ian making landfall in Florida, AAA Travel has important tips for those with travel plans in or near an impacted area:
-
- Our members’ safety remains our foremost priority. Heed all emergency and evacuation orders and remain informed of the latest public safety advisories.
- AAA urges travelers to check with their travel agent and travel providers for cancelation policies and itinerary changes.
- When traveling, it is important to monitor weather conditions regularly at your departure city and destination.
- If you have hotel reservations, check with your hotel for local updates on the storm’s impact.
- If you are flying, check with your airline on their change fee and rebooking policies and:
- Check your flight status before leaving for the airport.
- Download your airline’s app and sign up for text alerts to have the most up-to-date information about your flights.
- While you may not be able to travel to an impacted area, there are surrounding areas that may also be impacted. Take a close look at your travel plans to ensure your route or connections aren’t affected by the storm.
- If your flight is cancelled or delayed, a AAA travel advisor can help you find a safe location to stay while rebooking your flight. AAA’s advisors also have access to tourism boards and other resources in Florida, to assist travelers with information on when and where it may be safe to travel.
