MIA & FLL #Blue Experience For Autistic Children & Their Families

Miami International Airport is doing its part to help those traveling with autistic children. This is Autism Awareness Month, and MIA held an Airport Instruction and Readiness Tour.

Twenty-seven children with special needs and their families or guardians got to rehearse the travel experience in a safe and controlled environment in association with GlobalX Airlines.

Families practiced entering the airport, getting boarding passes, going through security and boarding a plane.

MIA officials say this is a two-way learning experience as airline and TSA workers learn how to interact with autistic passengers.

Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) held its 9th annual #AutismInFlight simulated travel experience for 50 participating students from seven Broward County Public Schools.
