Problem: Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities face challenges in air travel. Solution: "Wings for All" program provides a safe, practice travel experience.
The annual Wings for All program at Syracuse Hancock International Airport offers individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities an opportunity to experience air travel in a stress-free environment.
