Has anyone used firms that specialise in Travel companions for older people?
I am fine on short flights it is long flights that I am concerned about and do have to take old fashioned medication that has side effects which don’t help

You could get airport assistance which is VG when flying.

Thanks Aveline
I didn’t think I would get any answers.
I do know about travel assistance and have asked to get this also.
I felt r positive about going in the summer, when I didn’t feel so tired but couldn’t make up my mind until I talked to an older lady than myself who is flying to visit her sister in Sydney.
I have flown to NZ before but that was when ny husband was alive in 2014, so many years ago.

Does the organisation Universal Aunts still exist?
