Hi everyone,
I will be traveling for the first time as a quad in the end of November, (after
8 years post injury). And to make it even more exciting, I'm going to Cabo San
Lucas. I know!!! Pretty brave huh? Well not really because I live in Mexico and
I'm used to the inaccessibility. Of course I already know my way around here
where I live. Cabo is pretty much new to me, even though I've been there before
but not in a power wheelchair. I have my concerns but I think I'll be able to
manage.
What I am wondering right now is about the flying situation. I know they have
those special isle wheelchairs and that the staff at the airport help you
transfer and all that. But what about my power chair? I know they put it with
the luggage, but do they need to disassemble it? I sent a message to the
airline but I know they take a while to reply and I'm a bit anxious.Any other
traveling tips would be very much appreciated.
