How To Travel Well If You Are Blind

If you are blind or visually impaired, here are several options for how to travel by plane or other means:

• Use a human guide, usually by holding their arm
• Use a white cane, especially to detect and avoid obstacles
• Use a service dog
• Use assistive aids, usually optical or electronic aids
• Use no aids at all

Your selection of one of those options typically relies on:

• How visually impaired you are
• Your familiarity with the route you are traveling
• Lighting conditions
• Your own preferences
