My Desi Travel Companion
Verified India–USA companions
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Flying elderly parents between India and the USA? Match them with a verified companion on the same flight — for check-in, layovers, boarding, and a safe handoff.
My Desi Travel Companion brings peace of mind to families whose elderly parents travel between India and the USA. We match your loved ones with verified fellow travelers on the very same flight — caring companions who help with check-in, security, airport navigation, layovers, boarding, and a safe handoff to family at arrival.
Long-haul journeys are hard on elderly travelers: multiple flights, tight connections, language barriers, wheelchair requests, and 20+ hours in transit. And for children living far away, not being there to help is just as hard. We bridge that distance.
WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE US
- Verified companions — fellow travelers already booked on the same route, not strangers going out of their way.
- Both directions — India to the USA and the USA to India.
- Same-flight matching — your parent is never alone from departure to arrival.
- Multilingual care — request Telugu, Hindi, English, Tamil, Malayalam, and more.
- Wheelchair-aware — companions are briefed on mobility needs in advance.
- Stay informed — track your request anytime with a simple tracking number.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Share the trip — route, flight, dates, and any care needs.
2. We match — a verified traveler on the same flight.
3. Travel cared-for — check-in, layovers, boarding, and a safe handoff with family.
WANT TO HELP?
Already flying between India and the USA? Offer to assist a family on your route. Share your flight, and once you're verified and a family accepts, you'll make someone's journey safer and warmer.
SIMPLE & TRANSPARENT
Listing a request or an offer is free. Families may optionally offer a companion service fee as a thank-you, with funds held safely and released only after a successful handoff.
BUILT ON TRUST
Your information is used only to arrange a safe match and is never sold. Every submission is protected by human verification and security checks.
Caring travel, made simple — for the parents who once cared for us.
