Issues for Hearing Impaired Travelers
I've been complaining to Tauck for years about the inability to use the VOX devices because of my hearing impairment. I've written to them alter just about every one of our tours and, of course, nothing ever gets done. I know that some people have come up with “work arounds” (e.g., AlanS), but I still struggle.
I’m going to try a pair of hearing aids that implement Bluetooth Classic. This should make the use of the hearing aids about the same as AirPods.
This webpage discusses the issues - https://www.mikeandjudytravel.com/2026-Hearing-Aids.htm
I’ll report after our next trip whether they provided any help.
[My hearing impairment is fairly severe. People with mild or moderate impairment may be able to use the VOX unit okay.]
[I sent a note to Tauck with a link to the webpage. I doubt if they'll do anything but with the imformation on a webpage, at least I won't have to keep writing it over and over.]
