In one sentence, tell us about your idea.

Our idea is to make traveling less challenging for travelers with mobility impairments with ideas of providing more space and special chairs on airplanes and having hotels to offer virtual tours on their websites for traveler to look at before booking, so that people with mobility disabilities can actually see if the hotels meet their needs and determine if there are any barriers that could make it difficult or impossible to move around with their mobility device.

Finish this sentence: My ideal collaborative partner or partners would be...

My ideal collaborative partner or partners would be hotels and airlines around the world as well as the National Organization on Disability and Canadian Travel Agency (CTA).

In regards to finding the right collaborator, what is the most immediate or most pressing challenge you're facing right now?

This idea requires high cost especially on the airlines side. Therefore, the airlines or hotels may not adopt this idea if they don't really care about disabled travelers

BONUS QUESTION: What is it about your idea that makes you feel good?

People with mobility disabilities may want to travel like able-bodied people. However, due to their disabilities and the inadequate and imperfection of disability facilities, travel can be challenging for them, resulting in some of them possibly never having the opportunity to explore the world. Our idea may help to make traveling more comfortable and convenient for people with mobility disabilities as well as make them think that it is possible for them to see the world as anybody else can

What makes your idea innovative? Why has no one ever done it before?

A lot of companies and people tend to forget about disabled people and their motivation to go traveling as strongly as others and this group does not bring as much profit as others. However, they also like to enjoy life and traveling the world, exploring new countries, new places and willing to pay a lot if the condition is suitable for them

How far does your idea reach?

Global

Ideally, when would you launch this idea?

Two years from now

Who will benefit the most from your idea?

Disability group

At Sigmund, we are interested in ideas at the intersection of People, Planet, and Profit. How does your idea support these three categories?

This idea shows that humanity is important and our first priority. We care about people deeply and we want them to have the best and happiness and satisfaction in their lives. We also help to promote and keep the earth clean and green as we are partnering with airlines and hotels to provide sustainable equipment and reduce waste whenever our travelers go explore a new place. Furthermore, the tourism area for the disabled is going to increase rapidly as people have more time and money that they can finally spend on vacations and make them happy and satisfied.

Making the world a better place can seem daunting. At Sigmund, we have found this list of UN Goals to be a great compass. What UN goals would you say your idea relates to?
