The government’s Aviation Accessibility Task and Finish Group, which was set up last November and is led by the former Paralympian and accessibility campaigner, has recommended 19 “key actions” to airlines, airports and the CAA to improve disabled accessibility when travelling through airports and while onboard flights.

"I’m grateful for the commitment the industry has shown to making change and breaking down barriers in aviation for everyone, bringing freedom to travel, whether for leisure or work, and to connect with friends and family.
