Traveling with a disabled person
Hello all! My sister (who's in a wheelchair) and I will be traveling to Belfast, Northern Ireland in December for Christmas. Although we are both really excited we are also very nervous. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for us on how to make our flights and travels easier?

The Disability Travel forum here is focused on such needs, though it also includes people with other needs than getting around in a wheelchair. If you go to the main Forums page, you'll find it in the Special Interest Travel section. I don't want to presume on your intentions, but if you would like to move this post to that forum, just click on the red triangle under your name and make that request in the box that shows up.
If you have specific questions about Belfast in this regard, you might want to ask them in the U.K. and Ireland forum. It's in the Destinations area of FlyerTalk, under the Europe subheading.
Enjoy your trip!
