Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- For the convenience of passengers with disabilities, all 11 airports in Uzbekistan have the necessary equipment and qualified personnel.

Upon arrival at the airport, the passenger can apply to the terminal staff with a request to provide a wheelchair, an ambulift, and an accompanying person. The relevant airport services will assist the passenger during check-in, customs and passport control, as well as when boarding the aircraft.

For passengers who need to move in a supine position, employees of the airport health center can arrange a special car to the plane - an ambulift. In this case, the passenger’s baggage will be checked in by relatives or an accompanying person. Before allowing a passenger with a disability to fly, medical personnel must conduct an examination and conclude that the flight does not pose a danger to his health. In this case, the passenger will pass all types of control already near the aircraft.

In case of need for assistance upon arrival, airport dispatchers notify the relevant services and trained airport personnel in advance. Responsible for assisting passengers with disabilities will help with transportation, baggage claim, and will also escort them to the meeting.

When preparing for a flight, be sure to contact the carrier airline and clarify what assistance may be required.

The final decision to accept a passenger with reduced mobility for transportation is made by the airline, based on various factors, including aircraft capabilities, flight duration, as well as individual transportation requirements.
