wheelchair assist

Airport transport service

Wheelchair assist is airport service providing a wheelchair and attendant for passengers who have difficulty walking long distances.

Travelers request it when booking or at check-in: I called ahead to arrange wheelchair assist for my grandmother.

The service covers movement between gates, through security, and to baggage claim.
