Travelers with Disabilities
Travel to and around Puerto Rico is becoming easier for people with disabilities. Public
buildings (including hotels, restaurants, theaters and museums) are now required by law to
be wheelchair-accessible and to have appropriate rest-room facilities. Public transportation
services (buses, trains and taxis) must be made accessible to all, including those in wheel-
chairs, and telephone companies are required to provide relay operators for the hearing im-
paired.
Many banks now provide ATM instructions in Braille. Curb ramps are common, and
some of the busier roadway intersections have audible crossing signals. Playa Luquillo has
a beach especially for the mobility-impaired, and ferries to the Spanish Virgin Islands are
disabled-accessible.
Larger private and chain hotels have suites for disabled guests. Major car-rental agencies
offer hand-controlled models at no extra charge. All major airlines and intercity buses al-
low guide dogs to accompany passengers.
