Airports have made “significant” progress improving facilities to support disabled passengers, particularly those with hidden disabilities, the CAA has said.

In August 2016, the CAA assessed 30 UK airports on their efforts to support passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility.


While 17 were rated good or very good, 12 - including Heathrow - were found to be still ”taking steps” to achieve at least good performance. Edinburgh was the only airport of the 30 to be rated poor.
