Travelling With A Wheelchair
Could somebody on here please advise me of the protocol for the above?
I plan to accompany someone with a mobility issue from Scotland to Pakistan, which obviously will involve a transfer. Carrier unknown as yet but probably one of the Gulf carriers or PIA.
This person doesn't normally use a chair but is limited to maybe 100 metres walking max. If we take a chair, will we be allowed to take it into the cabin? Or are you normally obliged to check it in?
If so we'll be at the mercy of airport services to get us transferred and to and from the aircraft either end. Do airports normally provide this as a free service or does it vary?
Might it recommend a particular route?
Thanks in advance
Cooch
