He is able to transfer to another seat and to climb a few stairs. Accessible restrooms are important.
Most places are accesible-it is manditory for businesses!
My father and his friend are not bound by wheelchair, but they cannot climb many stairs due to hip issues; neither one of the men are accustomed to using their handicap "privilege." My mother wants to purchase the tickets in advance, but this is beyond my expertise.
