This allows the airline to make the necessary arrangements and provide personalized care based on each traveler’s needs. At the airport, Aer Lingus staff assist with the check-in process, including ticketing and baggage handling. Passengers are guided through security and escorted to their departure gate.

Mobility aids such as manual or electric wheelchairs are carefully stored in the aircraft’s hold and returned promptly upon arrival. After landing, assistance continues with deplaning, baggage retrieval, and navigation through the terminal, including connections or ground transportation.
