Mention the fact that you're a senior citizen when you make your travel reservations. Although the major U.S. airlines have canceled their senior discount programs, many Québec hotels still offer discounts for older travelers.
Throughout the Québec province, many theaters, museums, and other attractions also offer reduced admission to people as young as 60.
Show your AAA card if you have one. Members of the American Automobile Association get the same discounts as members of the CAA. That means reduced rates at a variety of museums, hotels, and restaurants.
Many reliable agencies and organizations target the 50-plus market. Elderhostel (tel. 800/454-5768; www.elderhostel.org) arranges worldwide study programs for those aged 55 and older and offers a variety of trips to Québec City and Montréal.
The best-selling paperback Unbelievably Good Deals and Great Adventures That You Absolutely Can't Get Unless You're Over 50 (McGraw-Hill) by Joann Rattner Heilman, includes information about Canadian travel.
