MemberReply to Travel with tracheotomi
Hi.
While it may be possible to hire some care workers for basic help, care requiring medical level assistance (like getting phlegm from the person’s airways) legally requires a special certification in Japan. So I would suggest they come with their own care worker or family member.

My feeling is that it is just saying “don’t expect us to help you transfer/provide physical assistance getting on rides” and providing a rule they can point to in case they need to not allow someone entry
This is a cool idea! While it might seem small, raising awareness is the first step towards change.

That’s really awesome that they’re bringing more awareness and representation to disabled access. Even small things like that can really make a difference in inclusion and visibility.
