Am I better off taking a wheelchair? Or perhaps for the short layover AA special services will help me based on status?
15:29 landing in ORD
17:08 takeoff to LHR
so about an hour and a half layover- on the same ticket... All insight and advice much appreciated.
Thank you!
you are going to want to ask for wheel chair to the door of the ac at ewr and at ord. My family experience is that only requesting on arrival doesn’t alway result in a chair being there.
the attendant will take you from t-3 to t-5 (on train) and help you get through the oft lengthy security lines at t-5.
imho, status gets you nothing.
Keep a 20 handy.
