Why This Survey is Crucial

Air travel is challenging for many disabled people and can pose huge issues for those with postural seating needs. Addressing these challenges requires a deeper understanding of the unique experiences and needs of these travellers.

Nothing about us without us, right?

This survey is a step towards making air travel more accessible, safe, comfortable, and dignified but first, we need to give them information! Your participation could help shape better flying experiences for many future travellers.
