    I am making inquiries for a chap with severe Cerebral Palsy, who uses a custom made wheelchair.
    He has been invited to a family wedding on the Canary Islands so needs to fly. But in order to fly I need to find out if he can fit, comfortably, in an airplane seat.

    Anyone here know if there is anywhere I can do a trial on a seat?

    Have you tried contacting Aer Lingus about it? They're very good in these situations and I'm sure they'll have had many passengers with similar needs.

    Hi, thanks for reply. The posters in Aviation have been really helpful ~ Aer Lingus been very good too but only so much info they can give me.
    Seems not many people with severe disabilities go flying!
