My 5-Point Trip Checklist (Free)

I'm in Barbados with my kids right now. Glass bottom boat, snorkeling, our first sea turtle — everything went smoothly, because I never book a trip without checking five things first.

This free guide gives you the exact checklist I use every time — for my own family, or for anyone I'm helping plan a trip. It covers:

What to actually check for room accessibility (photos won't tell you)

How to find out if an excursion really works for your group

What to confirm before you pay, so you're covered if plans change

The backup plan you need before your first day even starts

How to spot hidden costs before you book

I'm also exploring something new: full trip-building, where I handle the flights, hotel, accessibility needs, and excursions for you — not just teach you the rights side.

Grab the checklist, and if that's something you'd use, tell me. Your answer helps me decide whether to build it.

I'm Kim Kirkley, retired attorney and social worker. Too many travelers were never taught their travel rights. Airlines count on that silence. I make sure YOU are not the one they count on.

Easy travels.
