One of his biggest challenges faced by anyone with accessibility needs is finding information on the accessibility of hotels that they can truly trust, writes Richard Branson, founder, and CEO of Virgin Hotels. Branson, almost always ahead of the curve, found the solution in Mobility Mojo, which specializes in detailed hotel accessibility assessments. According to the story, there are more than a billion people globally with a disability—and more than 50% of these people choose not to travel because of a lack of information on accessibility. By using the website tool on Virgin Hotel sites, travelers can easily see the available accessibility features upfront. See an example of the travel service rating of a Chicago Virgin Hotel, here.
Our take: Digital solutions such as Mobility Mojo are on the rise, as are people with disabilities looking for answers. This particular solution is clear and easy to understand and offers and an overall rating for people who don’t need to know every detail. Congrats to Virgin Hotels for being a trailblazer!
