Three Levels of Certification
When an establishment is Autism Double-Checked, you know that you’ll have all of the tools that you need for planning your flight/your stay/your visit.
You also know that staff have been trained to be non-judgmental and understand many of the issues that face autistic people.
Travel means experiencing many things that are unfamiliar. We work with certified airlines, certified hotels and certified attractions in order to give you and your loved ones a chance to experience some of the things that aren’t familiar.
These ‘practice’ experiences will really help you when it comes to the real thing.

Welcome to Autism Double-Checked
We looked. We looked for autism-friendly hotels in New York. We found nothing. We looked for autism-friendly hotels in Los Angeles or Chicago. Nothing. Atlanta? Denver? Orlando? Phoenix? Seattle? Nothing, nothing, and nothing.
We researched. We asked leading academics in the field of autism. We asked parents and caregivers in the autism community. What does it take to make the travel industry better equipped to serve the autism community?
We got our answers. For successful vacations, families need two fundamental things:
Answer # 1. Non-judgmental, well-informed staff. While the general public has heard of autism, vanishingly few have any idea of the issues and their impact on individuals’ lives.
Our first step training, ‘Autism Aware’ provides the sensitivity training that you wish the whole world could have.
Our second step training ‘Autism Ready’ provides staff with job-specific information that tells them about situations that may arise and how to work with parents in order to assist in those situations.
Answer # 2. Information, information and more information. Just as every person with autism is unique, every autism-friendly travel establishment needs to be unique.
For each resort, each hotel, each airline and each visitor attraction, we prepare its own, unique Visitor/Passenger Guide. It provides all of the information that parents, caregivers or self-advocates could need for planning their trip.
Much of the information that you need can be found by practicing the experience before going ahead with the real thing. We work with hotels, attraction, and airlines in order to bring you the chance to practice some of these things.
