Can somone help us chack out a plan to travel to USA	simon	07/07/03
This is a unique question. Can somone, i would be very grateful, help me chalk out a plan for my family to travel to USA. Our main objective is for the traveling, not be so strenuous on my dad who is a heart patient. the doctor said that otherwise you dad would go alive in the plance and come out in a Casket (the doctor’s own words). His Cardiologist has said that dad can go if he has many many stopovers ever few hours and for dad to stay at those stopovers for 15 days-1 month's duration and then reaching USA. So i am determined to bring my parents back to the USA where they can have a better, healthier way of life with me supporting them. My dad has asthma (and where we are living right now, the pollution is terrible), diabetes, heart disease and arthritis. The Cardiologist also said that we can take a luxury cruise but that would be too long. As there is a cruise from Hong Kong to USA. I think it takes about 5-7days for Star Cruise Liners to reach USA. Can anyone help us make a route plan via plane and cruise from Karachi Pakistan to reach USA. We would like to visit our relatives in Chicago, TX, Arizona and CA. For my dad, spending 2 days on a cruise ship is okay but not more. If its more than 2-3 days, dad feels suffocated. I think he is scared that if something happens during the cruise trip, what will we do? as we will be at sea and we will be stranded. So I guess we will have a chalk out a plan which includes, plans, trains, cruises and automobiles. This plan should also include stopovers for at least 15 days. Thanks.

Hello: I would ask the physician what is the very best way to travel with your Father. And if he/she has any ideas or links to those that want to travel, on which type of transportation would be available. Then with the information you receive, contact your local travel agency, they will have the true links to all transportation available, with accurate time schedules on all accord. All transportations have medical help, and do have oxygen available, but they need to know in advance for that person's needs. I also have a link that can assist with insurance one can obtain, so they can be helped with financial medical needs, while traveling. Please view: www.usatourist.com/english/tips/insurance.html The above link does give out for different languages. If well planned, and proper assistance you should be able to get some good answers. Hopefully, this helps. If there is anything further that I may assist you with, please let me know. Respectfully, bal317
