When I traveled with my grandmother who was in a wheelchair she preferred Amtrak to flying. She had very good experiences. It takes forever to get anywhere, but she was never in a hurry and she enjoyed the ride.
I'm hoping Anna will do an Amtrak video too. I'm not a plane flyer and will never be if I can help it. I am, however, interested in traveling via train.
I'm enjoying this series. Can you do a video on dealing with swelling in the legs and feet while traveling, please? As someone who also has lipedema, I'd be interested to hear more tips and tricks besides compression and elevation.
I appreciate this video. I will be travelling with a wheelchair for the first time at the end of this month. No one had info for me. This is the best resource Ive found. Thanks
Great video!! As a nurse this is great content to see and I’m definitely following Chelsea now. Nothing more fabulous then assisting people to get out and enjoy life
Editing note: Sorry to be that person, but "policies and procedures" should not have apostrophes. No plurals should ever have apostrophes. Love your channels and thanks for all the work you do to bring quality and fun content!
While this post does not affect me, I really enjoyed that you are thinking of other disability aspects of travel. Kudos to you as well for discussing with someone who uses a wheelchair and not assuming their travel needs. Keep up the good work!
As a full time chair user, I appreciate you ladies doing this video! May I make a suggestion- please dont call our chairs "electric chairs" - Those are in prisons. Powerchair is right term. For our powerchairs- bubble wrap the controller if it cant be removed, remove anything removable-head rest, foot rest, cushion, etc. None of those count as carry on items. You can stay in your chair right to the plane door. You will be loaded first and last off. Before landing, remind the flight crew to call ahead to have your chair at the door for you. Always check your chair for any damage before you leave the airport. Like mentioned- Be your own advocate as no one will do it for you! My controller on my chair was broken - cost for it was $1300 which the airline paid for. Great video all in all!! Thank you!
I have never traveled with any mobility devices but as a person who works in Healthcare and Clinical research this is really interesting and insightful information. Thanks for such an educational collaboration
Thank you and Chelsea for this video!! I had a pretty hard time with being pushed around at the airport for the first time and it was hard to find info. I'm a cane user and i can't walk for a long period of time. Dallas was AWFUL.😢 I know i may get a chair soon so having info is useful
This was incredibly helpful. In the last year I've had to use a wheelchair and hope to get a mobility scooter soon. I was feeling "trapped" in the idea I wouldn't be able to travel anymore, but your video has given me renewed hope. Thanks again
ladies this was a great video to show... even though some may not be in this situation right now you never know when you could be at some poin in life and i think a lot of people feel they cant travel when they have mobility issues i know my mother is feeling that way... great to show you can
Take pictures of your device before turning it over to to the airline. It is your proof of pre-flight condition. They may claim the damage was before they received it.
recently flew and used adult incontinence underwear. NEXT time i will buy the kind with tabs, not pull on so they will be ez to change if accident occurs.
My question is how do you gather your luggage at the airport, to avoid luggage theft, when you need to wait for your scooter, wheelchair, etc, to be brought up for you at the gate. I take my scooter to the airplane door. I wait, along with those for strollers, to retrieve my scooter. By that time my luggage is already on the carousel and looks like it is left
I've wanted to go on a cruise for a long time but can find very little about size issues. I have a friend who has been on a lot of them but she's a size 8. Like that's going to help me. What she has told me is that mostly, I would be uncomfortable. Have you been on any cruises? River or Alaska ones are the ones that interest me.
What a great video. This is wonderful information to have and for everyone to know about. Chelsea had alot of great information and really was a wonderful co-host for this video. Side note... I love your skirt and want to know where you got it. Blessings from Texas 🙏💐

Love your outfit, girl! Can you posts the links to what your wearing?
Very useful tips. Thank you.
Great, great video again.
Wonderful video. Well done.
Thank you again for all the tios that really helps people who need special needs
I might have missed it, but does the same apply to rollators? I use one due to balance and fatigue issues with neuropathy and dysautonomia.
Thank you. Had nightmare experience going thru TSA with leg in to cast a few years ago. Still fear them.
I hate going through TSA. They are so RUDE and uncaring.
