Hi, all, I'm contemplating traveling to Tulsa, Oklahoma, from Alabama in October, and I was just wondering with the changes in the airline industry, have any of you been given any grief or trouble about taking your braillenotes on airplanes? I want to take mine on the plane with me and I don't want it confiscated like others have had makeup and other things taken when going through security. Rehab paid a lot of money and I don't want my braillenote taken away or lost in luggage. Any suggestions on how to make this a smooth transition? Also, as an aside question, I traveled years ago independently and smoothly in care of flight attendants to South Carolina twice and back home and back home from San Antonio, but this was all before 09/11/2001. Do they handle people with visual disabilities any ddifferently and has this improved or deteriorated since 09/11? I want to have as few regrets if any as possible if I do end up flying to Tulsa. I loved flying when I went before and the only thing I was asked to do was to turn off my tape player/walkman when we took off and want to do the right thing by the braillenote. Thanks and have a blessed day. ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender. If your reply would be useful to the list, please send a copy to the list as well.
