Special Traveller Travellers with disabilities should inform the airlines about their condition. Travellers with disabilities should enquire about door widths and accessibility before booking the tickets. Pick-ups for ailing passengers must be prearranged to avoid inconvenience. Some airlines have this facility - you need to check this up at the time of flight reservation. Women travellers - If your purse has been snatched one too many times in a foreign location use a waist bag on your next visit. Or sling your bag diagonally across so it can’t be snatched. For women travellers, carry a book along for company, which indirectly informs those interested in striking a conversation with you that you’re not interested.
