Is there a half-price ticket for the elderly? Now

Old people don't necessarily have half a ticket to travel.

Generally speaking, the preferential fare policies for the elderly in scenic spots are free for those over 65 years old, half-price tickets for those over 60 years old and full tickets for those under 60 years old. Is there a half-price discount for senior citizens? There is no uniform regulation. Generally, the preferential policies for the elderly are free for those over 70 years old and half-price for those over 65 years old. On major festivals, it may also be free for the elderly over 60 years old, and some will distinguish between accounts. Before traveling, you can consult relevant scenic spots or tour groups in detail to avoid wasting more money.

For the elderly who have reached the age of 60, they can go to the government affairs hall where the household registration is located with their ID cards. The age of the elderly is generally determined by the age on the identity card. The staff of the government affairs hall will handle it according to the process, and they can get the senior citizen discount card on the spot after handling it.

Tickets can be reduced or exempted for senior citizen cards in many scenic spots. The general policy is that people over 60 are entitled to concessionary tickets, and those over 70 are free. But this is not a policy that all scenic spots have, because it is not a mandatory policy of the National Tourism Administration, but an encouragement policy, which is voluntarily implemented by scenic spots.

Matters needing attention in elderly travel:

1, physical examination before departure: the elderly should have a physical examination before going out to travel and get the consent of the doctor before going. Then according to their physical condition and illness, choose tourist spots and arrange travel itinerary. As far as you can. Not far, but near. Don't force it. When traveling alone or together, you should be accompanied and taken care of.

2, the diet should be hygienic: during the trip, the diet should be light, eat less instant noodles, eat more fruits and vegetables to prevent constipation. Do not eat unsanitary and unqualified food and drinks, and do not drink spring water, pond water or river water. Try to eat in the restaurant where you live, bring your own tableware and water utensils, which is convenient and hygienic.

3, avoid excessive fatigue: the train is crowded, the carriage is dirty, and the car is bumpy and tired. Therefore, when the elderly travel to Xinjiang, it is best to take a sleeper or plane for a long distance, or they can go in sections. The itinerary should be loose but not tight, and the amount of activities should not be too large. When visiting, you should walk slowly, step by step, climb the mountain according to your ability, and avoid overwork.
