As the song goes My bags are packed… I’m off to the airport at 07:30 tomorrow (Saturday) for a few weeks in the sun. There is no need to have any sort of panic or worry on any flights short or long haul as long as you put some things in place from the start.
When you book tell them that you need special assistance at the airport and ask them to contact the hotel so that a ideal room can be arranged.
Insurance isn’t an issue as long as your up front, it might cost a little more but they will cover you.
When you get to the airport you can either go to special assistance at once and they will help you through check in/bag drop and security or you can do that yourself and then you go to the special assistance desk.
So there is no need to worry about a thing except how long you should stay in then sun or what mocktail your going to drink.
Now how does that song go again I’m leaving on a jet plane…
Have a wonderful time Westcountrynordic. May I ask where you are going and is it a new destination or are you returning to a favourite place. Given the weather we have here at this moment it strikes me you are jetting off at just the right time lol.

Going to Zanzibar which is a new destination but we have stayed with the hotel chain 5 times already so know will get excellent service. The temp this morning there is 31C
