Passengers with Reduced Mobility
Meet and Assist
Meet and Assist service can be provided, if you need to be guided to and from the aircraft or the airport terminal building when necessary. This service is available for deaf, blind, senior citizens or any other passengers needing guidance due to lack of foreign language knowledge.
Companions providing assistance
If you are not capable of taking care of all your physical needs independently, you are requested to travel with a companion who can assist you.
Security check for Passengers with Reduced Mobility
In order to prevent possible delays to flight due to the airport security check which must be adapted to the form and degree of disability of each passenger with reduced mobility, we advise you to present at the airport in due time to complete this formality.

We will do our best to allocate you a seat that is most suitable for your needs.
