"Hidden disability" lanyards introduced at Aberdeen Airport
Aberdeen International Airport has launched a new hidden disability lanyard.
It's aiming to make air travel more friendly and accessible for all passengers.
The airport now offers passengers the opportunity to have familiarisation tours of the terminal prior to their travel plans as well as the option of wearing a hidden disability lanyard whilst in the facility.
The lanyards, which are voluntary for passengers, act as a discreet indicator to airport staff to easily identify passengers who may need additional or specialised support.
Carol Benzie, Managing Director of Aberdeen International Airport said: "Putting the passenger first is at the core of our priorities and, as part of this, we are making a concerted effort to make the airport a more accessible and inclusive environment for passengers.
"The launch of the new hidden disability lanyards and familiarisation tours is an initiative that we are very proud to support with the aim of providing a user-friendly airport for all of our passengers."
