Participants practiced procedures such as check-in, security screening and boarding in a low-stress setting. The program aims to reduce travel anxiety and make flying more accessible for travelers with disabilities.

Why now: The airport's accessibility initiative is new and highlights growing efforts to make air travel inclusive for people with disabilities.
