In this episode of I’m Disabled… So What?!, Lauren and Heather (she’s back!) take to the skies with Chris Wood MBE — the powerhouse behind Flying Disabled, Air4All, and Rights on Flights.

Chris shares his incredible journey from frustrated passenger to leading global advocate for accessible aviation. From campaigning for wheelchair-securement systems on commercial aircraft through Air4All, to lobbying airlines and regulators with Rights on Flights, Chris is leading the charge to make flying safer, easier, and more inclusive for disabled travellers everywhere.

We discuss:
✈️ Why accessible flying is a human right, not a luxury
🧳 The dream of staying in your own wheelchair onboard
📣 What it’s like to go head-to-head with airlines and win
💬 How change is finally happening — and what’s next

Whether you fly regularly or haven't dared to try, this one will leave you feeling inspired and informed.

🎙️ Out now on all major platforms. Tune in and share your travel stories with us!
