    When I traveled with my grandmother who was in a wheelchair she preferred Amtrak to flying. She had very good experiences. It takes forever to get anywhere, but she was never in a hurry and she enjoyed the ride.

      I'm hoping Anna will do an Amtrak video too. I'm not a plane flyer and will never be if I can help it. I am, however, interested in traveling via train.

    I'm enjoying this series. Can you do a video on dealing with swelling in the legs and feet while traveling, please? As someone who also has lipedema, I'd be interested to hear more tips and tricks besides compression and elevation.

    While this post does not affect me, I really enjoyed that you are thinking of other disability aspects of travel. Kudos to you as well for discussing with someone who uses a wheelchair and not assuming their travel needs. Keep up the good work!

    Editing note: Sorry to be that person, but "policies and procedures" should not have apostrophes. No plurals should ever have apostrophes. Love your channels and thanks for all the work you do to bring quality and fun content!

    As a full time chair user, I appreciate you ladies doing this video! May I make a suggestion- please dont call our chairs "electric chairs" - Those are in prisons. Powerchair is right term. For our powerchairs- bubble wrap the controller if it cant be removed, remove anything removable-head rest, foot rest, cushion, etc. None of those count as carry on items. You can stay in your chair right to the plane door. You will be loaded first and last off. Before landing, remind the flight crew to call ahead to have your chair at the door for you. Always check your chair for any damage before you leave the airport. Like mentioned- Be your own advocate as no one will do it for you! My controller on my chair was broken - cost for it was $1300 which the airline paid for. Great video all in all!! Thank you!

    I've wanted to go on a cruise for a long time but can find very little about size issues. I have a friend who has been on a lot of them but she's a size 8. Like that's going to help me. What she has told me is that mostly, I would be uncomfortable. Have you been on any cruises? River or Alaska ones are the ones that interest me.

    I might have missed it, but does the same apply to rollators? I use one due to balance and fatigue issues with neuropathy and dysautonomia.

    Take pictures of your device before turning it over to to the airline. It is your proof of pre-flight condition. They may claim the damage was before they received it.
