Airplane improvements for accessibility
Hello!
I have the opportunity to talk with a major airline about challenges and possible improvements for accessibility.
They want a variety of perspectives so I wanted to ask here about the needs and hopes of everyone.
The discussion has mostly to do with the airplane itself but all ideas are welcome!
What is a challenge for you onboard?…

Much appreciation for being a part of this important collaboration! Some important things, although not comprehensive, are assuring an aisle chair is on board and in working condition, have movable arm rests for transfers from the aisle chair into traditional seats, have restrooms which are appropriately sized and equipped (ie grab bars)…

What do you think about this kangaroo-like wheelchair from Toyota?

Interesting, I worry about the “tail” sticking too far out though for stair landing spaces that are small. Also, wonder if it can safely traverse taller steps.

Wish I could find this easy to buy (even if I am sure it almost never happening)
