Hello.Paul.
I think the airport staff will help you take your baggage off the turntable and put it on a trolley at the airport.
From there to the driver…why not just have the driver come to the gate to pick you up?
Have you already arranged for a wheelchair?
In Japan, renting a wheelchair “outside the airport” is more difficult than you might think.
Does the local driver you arranged have a care qualification?
And does he own a vehicle specially designed for disabled people?If you are visiting Kyoto or Nara and need such a vehicle, please contact me.
I am also a qualified tourist guide, so I can help you.Tak

@Tak thx man. I still can walk, but not very far. I will also rent a wheelchair at airport
-
OK!
Will wheelchairs be rented from an outside company?
The wheelchairs rented at the airport cannot be taken outside…
Or can wheelchairs only be used within the airport?Thanks.

@Tak I just checked a little bit, and I am sure we can return it liken pocket wifi. Will recheck again. Your service will be interesting. For me to Osaka to. Near by city such as Kobe, Himeji. You use LINE? Or what apps?

@Han yeah that’s what I think but just not sure that they will provide lifiting baggage
I think everyone covered it pretty much, but essentially airline/airport staff will see you through most of the process (getting your wheelchair, getting bags, getting to customs) if you need it. I have had staff help put stuff on a trolley but I’m not sure I can say they will *for sure*. If you have a driver, they usually meet you after you leave the restricted area and have a sign with your name (you may want to ask them to confirm). If that is the case, you should be OK.
