Booking Special Assistance with Ease

Planning ahead is key. Passengers are encouraged to request special assistance when booking their ticket or at least 48 hours before departure. This allows Air Dolomiti to make the appropriate arrangements and ensure everything is in place on travel day. If you need help booking or updating your travel plans to include assistance, you can contact a support specialist directly at +1-855-742-0149. The team will walk you through the process and ensure your request is recorded properly.

Be prepared to provide some basic information, such as:

  • The type of assistance you need

  • Any medical equipment or mobility devices you'll bring

  • Whether you're traveling alone or with a companion

  • If a doctor’s note or medical certificate is required (for devices like oxygen tanks)

With this information, Air Dolomiti can fully prepare for your arrival and ensure your journey is seamless from beginning to end.

Day of Travel: What to Expect

Once you arrive at the airport, simply notify the ground staff that you’ve booked special assistance. You’ll be guided through every step of the process, including check-in, security screening, boarding, and deplaning. Staff are available to assist with luggage, carry-on storage, and any medical or mobility-related needs you may have. The service continues upon arrival, where assistance staff will help you reach baggage claim or meet any connecting transport services. To avoid delays, arrive earlier than usual—2 to 3 hours before your flight is generally recommended for special assistance passengers.
