A great day at the Rise4Disability event in Milton Keynes yesterday. We very much enjoyed taking part in the panel discussion on travelling with disabilities along with Emma Partlow , Isaac Harvey MBE and Dominic Lund-Conlon with some very interesting questions from the audience. The afternoon was then spent with a very busy stand answering questions about traveling with disabilities and medical or mobility equipment. Celia Chartres-Aris (née Hensman) We need to properly catch up, we missed a great opportunity yesterday, apologies! #ChangeTheMindSet #Travel #Disabled #Airports ##AirportManagement #AssistedTravel

"Lufthansa hit with record $4 million fine for horrific treatment of Jewish passengers flying out of New York" Daily Mail https://lnkd.in/ecsi9H5q
Lufthansa hit with fine for horrific treatment of Jewish passengers

So many things go right when travelling through an airport as a disabled person, yet still, things go horrifically wrong when the people involved from the airport/airline side have no training, or quite often irrelevant and insufficient training. This then leads to horror stories from passengers which show just how bad it can be sometimes. Celia Chartres-Aris (née Hensman) post below lists wrong after wrong behaviour and process by most of the parties involved, this is an education piece, I doubt any of these actions are deliberate or malicious but a lack of information. The passenger has the forethought to plan and bring more documentation than is needed so please, take the time to look at it and respect that the passenger has told you and confided in you much more than is required.

‘Madam, follow us for a full body search…’ Hi airports, please stop strip searching, testing, swabbing and police interviewing me! This should not be the reality of travelling with a feeding tube or any other tube! 😲 Nearly every single time I go through an airport I am subjected to removing my clothes for a body search. Despite turning up with all my relevant paperwork, letters upon letters from consultants, pharmacists and specialists nurses, packing everything in clear bags and being fully compliant with the need for additional security measures - the degrading treatment tube users receive at airports and on flights is rampant. It isn't just trying to pass through security and get on the plane that's the problem, and I know I am not alone, I have had airlines refuse to take my feed onto the plane, preventing me from boarding. I have been told I have a limit to how much I am allowed to take (bearing in mind that my feeding tube is my only source of hydration and nutrition I can have, meaning they want me to starve whilst l'm abroad?). I have had medical equipment treated so appallingly it has been broken or bags of feed have burst from the impact of being thrown around despite being clearly labelled as fragile medical equipment. I’ve had my tubes pulled to see ‘if they actually are attached’! I have had flight attendants refuse me entry onto a plane whilst attached to my feeding tube bag, despite having already passed through security. I have had to travel separately to my medical equipment, paying additional enormous fees, waiting at the other end, while it flys cargo because the airline refuses to accommodate the additional medical luggage I am travelling with. This is just a mere taste (no pun intended) of the treatment feeding tube users are being subjected to whilst exercising their right to travel. With hundreds of thousands of tube users around the world, our ability to travel and enjoy the world is being significantly and unnecessarily impacted. Scared of passing through security, or subjected to indecent searches, or even denied access onto a flight - something has got to change.” Thank you to the likes of Rights on Flights for providing a platform for me to share mine and so many others stories, and raise awareness of the treatment we face as travelling tubies - in the hope of calling for urgent change. #Disability #Disabled #Neurodivergent #FeedingTube #RightsOnFlights

Well here we are, A hectic two weeks for the SkyWise team, starting from Birmingham Airport to Munich Airport then on to Johannesburg Airport to Present the results of the airport accessibility survey to the Airports Council International - ACI Africa Facilitation Committee and attending their exhibition, then flying via Frankfurt Airport to arrive at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport for the ACI World - Airports Council International Customer Experience Summit. The world, as big as it is, is smaller when you work in aviation. But Customers are customers the world over and if we don't assess how we treat them, then we may lose them. #Accessibility #Holidays #AccessibleTravel #DisabilityInclusion #Airports #AirportManagement #Inclusion #IndependentTravel

Equipment is out there to stop this, issue is in some cases it's the mindset of the staff member, not intent. They are in baggage mode, where we have spent time with these groups and explained what a wheelchair is, what it means to the user, we have seen a decrease in damage but like everything else, this then changes with staff turnover. The employers need to invest in correct training for their teams so the understand the full implications.

Airlines & baggage handlers should do more to stop this! My heart beats so fast when I watch this - anxiety sets in. When you rely on your chair to get about, because the equipment is Your legs & the dear of your chair broken and what do you do, how to you go to the toilet, get around. We all must do more to speak out more and make the companies and airlines more accountable https://lnkd.in/e4C7cw3b
