Similar to all other major Italian Airports, Rimini Airport is well-equipped to handle disabled persons and passengers with reduced mobility. The terminal has elevators to provide easy transport between the building’s different levels, disabled toilet facilities and special car parking areas. Any passenger who requires special assistance should make the necessary arrangements with their airline company when booking their flight. The airline company staff will then inform staff of your special requirements, so that there will be someone ready and waiting for your arrival (whether it be by airplane or vehicle for a departure flight). Assistance is offered through all the airport procedures, such as security control measures, check-in processes or boarding of the aircraft for departure flights, and customs formalities and baggage collection for arrival flights. Qualified staff will remain with the disabled passenger until he/she is safely on board the aircraft, or until he/she has left the airport.
