Facilities for disabled persons

There are apparently no electric carts, which is no great surprise given the size of the airport. But wheelchairs and porters are available to take you from A to B. The wheelchairs have proper-sized rear wheels so you can propel yourself.

MIA has no air bridges, so if you have trouble with steps you’ll need to ask for the ambulift.

They do have a narrow wheelchair suitable for aircraft aisles, but be sure to tell them you need it when you check in.

Other facilities available include PRM Service Call-Points at the main car park entrance and outside the departure check-in hall, priority seating, low telephones and dedicated toilets in all areas of the building.

More information can be found on the airport’s accessibility page.
