Together, the two travel leaders are partnering to advance accessible travel through verified data and accessibility-driven content marketing.

Denver, CO and San Francisco, CA — March 2026 — Wheel the World, the world’s leading accessibility verification travel platform, today announced a strategic partnership with Miles Partnership, the global marketing agency dedicated exclusively to travel and tourism.

Founded with the mission of making travel accessible so people with disabilities and seniors can explore the world without limits, Wheel the World has built the industry’s most comprehensive accessibility verification system for destinations and hospitality businesses. Through its Accessibility Verified program, the company helps destinations, hotels, restaurants, tourism attractions, airports and other hospitality providers verify, improve and market their accessibility, transforming inclusion into measurable business value by better serving travelers with disabilities and their companions.

Through this partnership, Wheel the World and Miles Partnership will collaborate to help Destination Marketing Organizations strengthen their accessibility performance and effectively communicate their commitment to inclusive travel using verified accessibility data, research-driven insights, storytelling and media strategy.

As part of the collaboration, Miles Partnership has also invested in Wheel the World’s recent Series A round, reinforcing a shared commitment to scaling accessibility innovation across the travel industry.

The global travel industry is undergoing a structural shift driven by demographic change and rising expectations around inclusion. As populations age and 1.3 billion people worldwide live with disabilities, destinations that proactively improve and clearly communicate their accessibility are positioning themselves for long-term growth and competitive leadership.

“Accessible travel is the fastest-growing trend in the travel industry,” said Alvaro Silberstein, CEO and Co-founder of Wheel the World. “Together with Miles Partnership, we are setting the trusted standard for accessibility in destinations and hospitality. Our goal is clear: make accessibility measurable, marketable and profitable for the industry — and most importantly, ensure that people with disabilities and seniors can travel confidently, with complete and reliable information, to places that are truly ready to welcome them.”

By combining Wheel the World’s on-the-ground verification across more than 200 standardized accessibility data points with Miles Partnership’s expertise in research, creative storytelling and media strategy, destinations will have a comprehensive pathway to:

  • Verify accessibility performance across their ecosystem
  • Identify opportunities for improvement through actionable data
  • Communicate inclusive experiences through trusted, high-impact marketing

“Accessibility is no longer a side initiative or a compliance checkbox — it is a strategic imperative for destinations that want to lead,” said David Burgess, President & CEO of Miles Partnership. “At Miles, we believe in positively advancing the travel industry through collaboration and meaningful impact. Our partnership with Wheel the World reflects our shared values and our commitment to helping destinations turn accessibility into measurable growth and long-term competitive advantage.”

Wheel the World continues to collaborate with leading agencies, technology providers and destination partners across the travel ecosystem to accelerate the adoption of accessibility as an industry standard.
