     Welcome to FairFare Senior Flight Assistant
The simple, step-by-step way to choose flights that are kinder to older travelers—without hidden agendas.

​​ Introduction


CareCompass FairFare is a decision-support tool. It does not sell tickets and does not favor any airline or booking site.

Why This Matters

Airline choices can feel overwhelming: prices change, connections vary, and “cheapest” is often the most exhausting. FairFare helps you compare options clearly and pick what fits your priorities.
 

What we help with

  • Comfort vs cost trade-offs (in plain language)

  • Safer connections (avoiding rushed airport sprints)

  • Better timing (avoid red-eyes, very early departures, late arrivals—if you want)

  • Clear ranking with “why this is #1” explanations.

Educational planning help only.


If you have health-related questions (oxygen needs, fit Educational planning help only.


If you have health-related questions (oxygen needs, fit-to-fly concerns, mobility risks), confirm with your clinician and the airline’s special assistance desk.

Note
FairFare is a decision-support tool. It does not sell tickets and does not favor any airline or booking site.

Recommendations are based only on:

  • Your stated priorities (comfort vs cost, timing, connections)

  • Objective flight details (schedule, layovers, total time, price at time checked)

Important: Prices and availability change quickly. Always confirm:

  • Fare rules, change/cancel terms

  • Seat selection costs

  • Baggage fees

 

directly on the airline or booking site before purchasing.

How it works

  1. Tell us who’s traveling (age range + mobility needs)

  2. Tell us the trip (route + date(s))

  3. Choose preferences (connections, red-eyes, comfort vs cost)

  4. Get a ranked shortlist with clear trade-offs

 

What we ask

We ask (only what’s needed):

  • Age range (65–74 / 75–84 / 85+)

  • Route (cities or airports)

  • General mobility (walks slowly, cane, walker, wheelchair assist)

We never ask:

  • Full name, exact birthdate

  • Passport/ID, credit card, banking details

  • Passwords, one-time codes, loyalty numbers​

 

Example output preview

  • “Recommended #1: Best comfort-balanced option”

  • “Recommended #2: Cheaper but longer travel day”

  • “Avoid: too-tight connection”
