Panel discussion: Understanding the lived experiences of disabled passengers

19 Mar 2026
Barrier-free and inclusive travel
Join this panel to learn more from disabled people about their experiences traveling through air, the challenges they face when traveling and how the aviation industry can solve them. This panel will provide an opportunity for industry professionals to ask the panelists about their experiences and opinions on aviation accessibility, where they would like the industry to focus, and the solutions – big or small – for their everyday challenges. If you have ever wondered anything about the experiences of disabled people traveling, now is your chance to ask.
  • Understanding the main barriers disabled people face when traveling
  • Identifying areas for improvement in aviation accessibility
  • Building disability awareness and knowledge of the wider experiences of disabled people
