Interpreters for Travel
Our travel interpreters are prepared to connect you to cultures nearby and abroad whether you’ve booked a short cruise or a semester abroad.
Because borders should never be placed around your adventures, our sign language interpreters are prepared to connect you to cultures nearby and abroad.
Never worked with an interpreter before? Don’t sweat it!
We’ve included some helpful tips to ensure your inclusive experience goes smoothly.
Tips for Working with an Interpreter while Traveling
- Submit your sign language travel interpreter request, along with your itinerary, as early as possible. The earlier you submit your request, the more interpreters you have to choose from for your trip!
- Determine who will be responsible for compensating the travel interpreter’s services. If you are traveling as part of a program, work trip, or study abroad opportunity, the organizing party may be responsible for some or all of the final service expense.
- Once an interpreter is confirmed, reserve their travel and lodging accommodations and provide this information to an ICS coordinator.
- Still unsure? Reach out to a coordinator to ask a question or discuss how to prepare for your service request.
- The world awaits you, now you’re ready to be included!
How do I plan to travel with a Sign Language Interpreter?
When planning a semester abroad or booking passage on a cruise ship, a travel interpreter might not always be at the top of the packing list! Since this requires a longer commitment on the part of the service provider and a more varied skill-set, it’s recommended that you submit your request as early as possible, determine who will be responsible for the costs, and keep ICS apprised of any booking changes.
