Wings for Autism Takes Flight Again
Phoenix Sky Harbor proudly hosted its ninth annual Wings for AutismĀ® event, providing families with children on the autism spectrum an invaluable opportunity to rehearse the airport experience. More than 150 participants had the chance to navigate through airport security, board a flight, and even taxi around the airport on a real plane.
The airport again partnered with The Arc of Arizona, Inc. and American Airlines, whose contributions were instrumental in ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for all attendees. Families left with greater confidence and familiarity with the travel process, empowering them for future journeys.
Thanks to all who participated and contributed to the success of this meaningful event, fostering inclusivity and support within the local community.
