MCS and allergic travelers

How to get the most out of the Hub when you've got allergies!

A growing number of children and adults have asthma, allergies and chemical sensitivities (or MCS). We at the Hub know that this can pose additional challenges to traveling, so we have set up the site to make it easy to narrow down to vacation accommodations that meet your specific needs. Here's how:

Once you have used the site map/search to narrow down to the listings in your destination city, you will notice that along the left a variety of criteria will appear. You can use the criteria on the left to narrow down those listings that meet your needs or the needs of your family members.

• If you are allergic to animals, you can use the drop-down menu along the left to narrow down to listings that never allow pets
• If it's important to you that your accommodations are fragrance free, choose the fragrance free checkbox to narrow to listings that passed the fragrance free category.
• If it's important to you that your accommodations are careful about air quality issues, check the air quality to narrow to listings that passed the air quality category.

Remember, businesses need to pass only three of five questions in a category in order to qualify for that category. Be sure you read their Green Profile on their full page listing to make sure they have answered Yes to the questions that are important to you.

Special Note:
Green Vacation Hub works hard to provide the most current, accurate information. For more detailed data related to environmental sensitivities and allergies, we strongly recommend contacting the vacation accommodation directly to inquire about your specific needs.
