Wheel the World: Empowering Travelers Through Accessibility
Travelers with mobility disabilities spend $58.2 billion per year on travel and go on leisure trips with nearly the same frequency as those without mobility issues, and yet this audience is frequently overlooked by travel providers. Wheel the World is a travel booking site with the mission of making the world more accessible. Discover the needs of this market and how your travel organization can be a part of the solution through the company’s innovative Accessibility Mapping System and Wheel the World Academy, a program for travel professionals to learn more about accessible tourism, disabilities, and universal design.
