[Travelandtourism] Was airlines, then travel MLM, now I want to get back to the airlines issues, please remember to change subject lines on things

[Cheryl Echevarria]

Okay,

 

We started this discussion about accessibility when traveling on an airplane
with the technology.

 

We want to hear the new things you like whether at the airports, on the
plane, planning your plane journey, have you taken advantage of the TSA
Cares Program, and FYI, this is on our www.nfbtravel.org
<http://www.nfbtravel.org>   website. There are other resources, remember to
take advantage of them to use while you are traveling.

 

Also, remember while you are traveling you also have smartphones and
tablets, etc. That have services already on their so if you need help with
something, you can access it with your screen readers. Many airlines once
you get to that certain altitude you can use your devices, etc. I recently
used my KNFB Reader to read the Emergency packet on the plane. Some of the
websites for the airlines has the information on their website, just put
your flight information in.

"Live the Life You Want"

 

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
