Autism Double-Checked Featured on CBS News’ The Uplift – A Special Look at Autism Flies

Posted by Jodi Daniels News

We’re beyond excited to share some amazing news! Autism Double-Checked was recently featured on CBS News’ The Uplift, a show dedicated to celebrating stories that inspire and make a difference. The segment highlights one of our favorite events – an Autism Flies event at Bradley International Airport, in collaboration with Breeze Airways, which is proudly Autism Double-Checked certified!

The video showcases the incredible impact of our partnership with Breeze Airways and the positive changes it brings to travelers in the autism community. Through the Autism Flies event, we help create a more welcoming, understanding air travel experience for individuals and families. The segment also includes insightful interviews with our Founder and CEO, Alan Day, who shares the vision behind Autism Double-Checked and how we’re working to make air travel more accessible.

We’re so grateful to CBS News for shining a spotlight on this special event and for recognizing the importance of our work. This coverage means so much to our team and, most importantly, to the individuals and families we serve every day.

Please check out the video, share it with your friends, and let’s keep spreading the word about the importance of autism-friendly travel!

About us

Both of ADC’s co-founders are career ‘travel people’ and both have special needs children: CEO Alan Day comes from the travel agency side and David Tait from aviation, where he was a co-founder of Virgin Atlantic Airways. In 2015, recognizing first-hand the industry’s lack of understanding of, and failure to cater to the special needs traveler, the two formed ADC and set about changing things.
