Accessible travel

Our first case was a man who is paraplegic, so travelling with a wheelchair or on a stretcher is part of how we work, not an extra.

Flying with reduced mobility

Wheelchair assistance

From kerb to seat at every airport, including help on and off the aircraft. We request the right level of assistance for you when we book.

Medical clearance

Airlines often need a medical form signed by your doctor before you fly. We get the right forms from the airline and help your doctor complete them.

Extra seats and equipment

Extra legroom, a seat for a companion, oxygen or a mobility aid in the cabin: we ask the airline in advance and get confirmation in writing.

Stretcher travel

We work with various airlines that offer stretcher service on scheduled flights, and we have experience booking them. That includes the airline’s medical forms, the stretcher fitting on board, a medical escort if needed, and ambulance transfers at both ends.

On the ground in China

  • Wheelchair-accessible vehicles for airport and hospital transfers
  • Hotel rooms and serviced apartments with lifts and step-free access, checked with the property before you book
  • Wheelchairs and mobility aids arranged at the hospital
  • A team member with you at appointments, so you never have to manage alone

Cost

Medical escort or stretcher travel coordination is C$2,500, plus the airline’s and escort’s own charges, which we quote before you commit.
