    Hi Yes, We had the same amazing experience in May .My wife is totally dependent on her wheelchair. She relies on me to transfer and help with her general duties but it was the best experience of our lives. The most important is do your homework. That’s part of anyone’s holiday sure! We all just have to do a bit more homework to make it happen with limited issues . We have had more problems planning a holiday in Britain than Japan. What a great country. We took a 14 hour flight from London to Tokyo . Some people may say why not stop off half way and catch a connecting flight, well my thoughts were no as the airline staff are above amazing and will look after all disabled guests till they land and even more. Our flight attendants were 100% committed to looking after us from arranging an isle chair to go to the toilet to constantly asking us if we were ok . We quickly learned after an hour or two that we did not need to worry and basically gave them an easy time without asking for anything as they knew exactly when we wanted anything. Fantastic . Best experience of our lives . As every one knows once you are there then your holiday begins and you are like everyone else as long as you do your homework!
