Airport drop-off update:
As reported in an earlier post, there are no special exemptions for the less mobile among us.
I approached up the ramp to departures & chose to enter through the right hand barrier (taking note of the time) which put us closer to the terminal doors. There was only one (that I could see) handicapped parking bay which fortunately, was unoccupied & it was right by a ramp for easier wheelchair use & which continued all the way across the road to the entrance. My friend ran across & returned with a luggage trolley then left me to load it whilst she then ran back across to the airline desk to let them know we had arrived & required the pre-booked assistance. She then scooted back to me to help with the luggage & elderly passenger & we were met at the entrance doors by the airport helpers who took over. We both galloped back to the car & exited through the barrier with about a minute to spare. Phew!
