When paying for a flight of less than three hours, your travel4seniors.com editor usually buys the cheapest economy seat. Of course, over the years I’ve noted that they are no longer so cheap, and worse, seem to get smaller every time I fly.

Italian aircraft seat manufacturer Aviointeriors recently showed their latest models of near-standing seats, called Skyrider, in Hamburg at the Aircraft Interiors Expo 2019 (AIX). They’re described as something between a horse saddle and bicycle seat.

The vintage town is preserved as it looked nearly two centuries ago. Your visit includes reenactment of the legendary gunfight at the O.K. Corral, booze and chow in the Bird Cage saloon and cowboy cemetery at Boot Hill. Tombstone is a scenic hour’s drive south of Tucson.

I expect to spend a lot on the hotel room, entertainment, dining and, of course, gambling. Are there any discounts available for seniors, so I can stretch the limited resources from my pension and Social Security? LRO’G, Chicago IL

A: No senior discounts on gambling, so you may want to set a limit to your casino play. Since you’re not an pro, make small bets to extend the time, investing maybe $100 a day. The good news is that saving on senior discounts almost everywhere in Sin City could provide you with more gambling money.

Simply, when booking your room, then checking in, night-clubbing and dining, always research and on-site ask first for senior discounts. You’ll be happily surprised that just about all hotels, theaters and restaurants offer lower prices to seniors. Of course, the reason is that they know you’ll play it all back in the casino.
