AUTISM FLIES: FREE event at BDL

Autism Double-Checked wants to make flying more relaxing for you and your autistic loved one this summer.

Join them for their free event and practice checking-in at the airport and boarding a plane!

Autism Flies
Bradley International Airport (BDL) Tuesday, May 16, 2023
4:00 pm to 6:00 pm
Register Here

How it will work: Head over the airport and park, grab your IDs and then head into the terminal to gather your boarding passes at the check-in ticket counter. Go through TSA security and proceed to the gate listed on your boarding ticket. Wait for your names to be called to board the aircraft, find your seats and fasten your seat belts. After that, sit back and listen to the onboard announcements, enjoy a snack and then deplane. The plane will not taxi or take-off.

Note: Parking instructions and terminal number will be provided in your registration confirmation email.

Space is limited and registration is required here. If you or an autistic loved one requires special accommodations, please reach out to the Autism Flies event coordinators, or use the notes field on the registration page. If you are registering a family of 6 or more, please do so here.
