    Contact the airline to arrange the disability assistance that you need, both sides of the Atlantic 😊

    Hi @beadles93

    I travelled to New York for my 40th birthday. It was a wonderful experience and I'm sure you will all have an amazing time.

    I've just visited Trip Adviser Disabled Advice which you might find helpful. There was a link to Sick Girl Travels blog which has a detailed account of places to visit that are accessible to all disabled people.

    You might have already planned your trip, but these sites might give you some additional hints and tips.

    Happy holiday.
