At the airport

We can arrange a meet and assist service from check in to the gate, or from the aircraft to your onward transport at all airports.

There are boarding announcements at the airport and you can ask any of our team members for information at any time.

On board

  • We can give you an individual safety briefing on your flight. If you’ve already contacted us, then the cabin crew will approach you. Otherwise you can always ask. They will explain the safety procedures, exit locations, and how we can best assist you.
  • Our cabin crew will read the menu options to you and explain the placement of the items in front of you.
  • For safety reasons, we’re unable to give you an exit row seat.
