Are you a #WCHC passenger who has been put off flying by manual handling? Visit our website https://t.co/9VTpQqUSSk to find which airports offer the Eagle Lifter for #PRM transfer.

[Liam P Dwyer @liampdwyer]

@OmniServLtd A great person Sam is for all #disabled people Omniserve. I had stopped flying for over two years due to manual handling until I tried the @Eagle2EU @Eagle2Lifter and never looked back.

@TomClonan Eoghan 🎂🥂
Agree Tom, 1 @Eagle2EU @Eagle2Lifter at BFS and not one WAV on offer from @NationalPro @UKEnterprise @Europcar_UK @HertzIreland @BudgetUK @AvisUK

[Mad Taoiseach @MadTaoiseach]

@TomClonan @horseymatilda Would Eoghan and Duke like to see @Eagle2Lifter at Irish and all Airports? It's a change that will seriously help #WCHC #PRM avoid indignity and danger of manual lifting, just to catch a flight.

[John McGuinness @Eagle2Lifter]

I can confirm that Gatwick Airport have 2 only Eagle Passenger Lifters

Thanks @Travability my Final leg from @HeathrowAirport to @ChangiAirport to @SydneyAirport was perfect from checkin to disembarking - excellent legroom just behind business class. Well done @Qantas across the three airports & @Eagle2Lifter teams.

[John McGuinness @Eagle2Lifter]

@simon_darcy @Eagle2EU @Failte_Ireland @VisitBritain @RossCalladine @themotionspot @ChrisGVeitch @belfastairport @britishairways @Gatwick_Airport Hi Simon, yes I am aware of this unit as they had a full demo of our Eagle at Gatwick Airport some 18 months or so ago, under the banner of an interested party from Amsterdam Airport. I’m not sure if they have any aviation approvals like ours, also our patient including methods!

[Prof Simon Darcy @simon_darcy]

Thanks @Travability first leg Sydney Perth London over - excellent legroom just behind business class. Well done @Qantas & @Eagle2Lifter team getting in & out of the seat so professionally. Waiting to board to London to work & meet with @ChrisGVeitch @RossCalladine @VisitBritain

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

@julsey_nc @flybe @AviRamp_ @Eagle2Lifter It means that training for operation of Eagle Lifter is possible for staff at airports, such as Isle of Man.

[John McGuinness @Eagle2Lifter]

@YaChristle @Twitter We have Eagles at some airports in the USA. Please visit https://t.co/nuHTXlTN70 for the updated list of locations.

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

Delighted to engage with the @OmniServLtd team @HeathrowAirport today @Eagle2Lifter new model, 4A now in use and expanding range of access for #wchc #prm

[John McGuinness @Eagle2Lifter]

@kezz75 @Eagle2EU Hi Kerry, the Eagle was purchased by the airport service provider SATS and I believe they would be contracted to look after all airlines. Please request an Eagle transfer through your airline, they will be able to confirm your transfer.

[John McGuinness @Eagle2Lifter]

As record numbers of persons with disabilities travel by air, wheelchair users continue to face an outdated approach when being transferred to and from an aircraft.

In most cases People with Restricted... https://t.co/EEklbkIZgB

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

It would be cool if @FoxNikkiFox and @FrankRGardner could go and meet @VirginAtlantic and see how good this rig is for nervous or first time flyers. #wchc #prm CAN fly.

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

Here's a great reason for all airlines and airports t use @Eagle2Lifter for choosing to assist #WCHC #PRM https://t.co/qSlKJew2TZ @qef_tryb4ufly

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

This would be a good time for some great news. Belfast International Airport has now got @Eagle2Lifter @Eagle2EU . This is fantastic for people who require this level of service and who cannot get it in Dublin or Cork.

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

Ramp used from Ambilift to Aircraft is put in place before @Eagle2Lifter is rolled on or off the aircraft. The ramp is multi articulated to allow for differing angles. This one is on @jet2tweets ifyou are #wchc #prm planning #vacation consider @jet2tweets & @Eagle2EU transfer.

[Liam P Dwyer @liampdwyer]

@airportparkshop @Eagle2EU @Tony_Clough #Disabled #PRMs need a lot more support from blog's like this, well done guys. I will not fly to an #airport without an @Eagle2EU @Eagle2Lifter and on our door step @Gatwick_Airport has the Eagle 4A and 2A Lifters.

[Kylie Vosa @kylie_vosa]

Does Luton have an @Eagle2Lifter? If not, add one to their list! https://t.co/kaAucBD4FD

[Eagle 2 Lifter @Eagle2EU]

@MDBloggersCrew always request @Eagle2Lifter if required at departure and destination airports. If it's not available, ask why.
