[rehab] Access to Acorn

[Dick Davis]

Dear List Members,



I have a former student, Jonathan McClung, who is a travel agent.  He has
discovered that JAWS doesn’t work well with Acorn, the system that American
Airlines and other airlines use, but he thinks VoiceOver does and wants to
explore it further with American Airlines.  I think some of you have had
discussions about Acorn, but don’t remember what the conclusions were.  Can
anyone give Jonathan some information on accessibility of Acorn?  You can
respond directly to him at jonathan.kltravel at gmail.com.  Please copy me at
ddavis at blindinc.org, as I would like to help more blind people get jobs in
the travel industry.



Thanks,

Dick Davis, Chair
