Special Assistance Request Form

Arrange special assistance for travelers online, capturing their needs, flight details, and requirements in one considerate form.

Description

The Special Assistance Request Form gives airports and airlines a caring, organized way to support passengers who need extra help. It captures who the assistance is for and their specific needs, along with the travel date, terminal, airline, and flight number, so your team can arrange the right support in advance.

A question about whether the passenger is traveling alone and a notes field capture the finer detail that makes assistance truly helpful. Contact information and an agreement checkbox ensure your team can confirm arrangements and that the passenger knows what to expect.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Special Assistance Request Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What is a special assistance request form?

A special assistance request form is an online form passengers use to arrange extra help when flying, such as mobility or accessibility support. It captures their needs, flight details, and whether they are traveling alone, so an airport or airline can prepare the right assistance before they arrive.

What kinds of assistance can be requested?

Passengers can request help such as wheelchair assistance, guidance through the terminal, support for hidden disabilities, or help for those traveling alone. A specify field lets them describe their exact needs, ensuring your team arranges support that genuinely fits the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all response.

Why ask about traveling alone?

Knowing whether a passenger is traveling alone helps your team judge the level of support they may need through the airport and on board. It ensures someone traveling without a companion receives appropriate assistance and reassurance at each stage of their journey, from check-in to boarding.

Why capture flight and terminal details?

The travel date, departure terminal, airline, and flight number let your team be in the right place at the right time. Capturing these details ensures assistance is arranged with the correct airline and ready when the passenger arrives, so nothing is left to chance on the day.

How far in advance should passengers request?

Passengers should request assistance as early as possible, ideally when booking or well before travel, so airports and airlines can arrange staff and equipment. Submitting the form in advance gives your team time to prepare properly, which makes the passenger’s journey smoother and far less stressful.

Is the special assistance request form free?

Yes, this special assistance request form is completely free, and you can customize the fields to fit your service, embed it on your website, and launch it with no coding required. Just create a free Fun Forms account to start arranging assistance online.
