Thanks for your suggestions. I have been telling mum she should not feel reluctant to claim any kind of concession as able-bodied people travelling in groups are not going to resent a single female with special needs getting a bit of extra help or going in line before them. She belongs to a generation when it wasn't done to make a fuss but just keep a stiff upper lip and get on with it. My concern is that she doesn't get so stressed out and exhausted that she spends the first few days of her vacation having to recover. I will let you know the results of her trip eventually.
