Passengers with reduced mobility
If you are ill or injured, if your mobility has been reduced due to: a disability (sensory or motional ), a mental deficiency, age, illness, or any other cause generating a handicap for the use of air transportation, Aircalin offers you a set of services to meet your needs.
You are requested to report your handicap as soon as possible to your Aircalin agency so as to define your needs.

The booking agent will guide you in obtaining that agreement
