Luton Airport Special Assistance

Hidden disabilities

Stickers are available for those travelling with a hidden or non-physical disability to make them identifiable to staff. This will allow staff to recognise that the individual may need additional support, without them having to give details if they don’t wish to. These are especially useful for those travelling with someone with autism or dementia for example.

Assistance Dogs

Guide and Hearing dogs are of course welcome, so long as they are registered with the Pet Travel Scheme and your airline are licenced to have them on board. You should also contact Clece Care, Luton’s care provider by emailing them on specialassistance@ltn.aero.

Luton Airport Disabled Parking

Although all the car parks in London Luton have disabled bays, however, if you want to use their special assistance service then it is recommended that you use the Terminal car park 1 or 2.

Please ensure that your blue badge, as well as your blue parking clock, are clearly displayed on the dashboard.

If you need to retain your blue badge for your trip, please speak to the APCOA team to let them know you will be parked in a designated bay.

Advice for those requiring special assistance at airports

To ensure maximum assistance make sure you contact your airline directly or through your travel agent to advise them if you have trouble with walking, need wheelchair assistance or have any special dietary requirements. This will enable any special arrangements at the airport or during the flight, to be made.

Passengers are requested to advise staff on check-in of all their requirements. Further information for disabled customers is available by contacting specialassistance@ltn.aero. There are compact discs detailing all the relevant facilities and large print copies of all literature for the visually impaired.
