Creator's Key Takeaways

by law according to the air carrier act a manual wheelchair can be stowed in the cabin

I'm still seeing wheelchairs get damaged I'm still hearing about things being broken

I have been on four Holland America cruises this year

the big issue for me is still that pendering and still just the rest of the excursions

Creator's Tips & Advice
