Glasgow Airport has joined a new expert group to help make air travel better for disabled passengers.
The Aviation Accessibility Task and Finish Group was launched on November 7 by UK Transport Secretary, Louise Haigh.
It aims to improve aviation accessibility, empower consumers, and improve industry standards.
The group is chaired by Paralympian Tanni Grey-Thompson, Baroness Grey-Thompson.
Other members include presenter Sophie Morgan, co-founder of the disability group Rights on Flights.
They will work with other industry representatives and consumer advocates to tackle the biggest barriers to air travel for disabled passengers.
The taskforce will engage directly with individuals who have first-hand experience of flying with a disability, ensuring the group can act as a platform to advocate for disabled passengers.
Transport Secretary Louise Haigh said: "Everyone has the right to travel with dignity and it is vital we ensure that flying is an accessible, safe and enjoyable experience for all.
"For too long, disabled passengers haven’t had the standard of assistance and service they need.
"That’s why we are bringing together this expert taskforce to drive forward change."
The group will spend the next nine months reviewing how to tackle problems affecting disabled passengers' travel experience and dignity.
This could include being left onboard aircraft without timely assistance, poor handling of wheelchairs, inadequate service, lack of access to toilet facilities, and limited access to clear information
They will meet for the first time later this month.
Ronald Leitch, chief operating officer at AGS Airports, which owns and operates Glasgow Airport, said: "We have committed significant investment and resource to ensuring everyone who travels through our airports has a seamless journey.
“Through ongoing engagement with accessibility forums, national charities and by listening to feedback we have been able to make continuous improvements in our facilities, deliver tailored staff training and trial new technology to enhance service levels for passengers with reduced mobility and disabilities.
"We are looking to sharing our views and taking learnings from what is a very important group."
