Getting around the museum

We want everyone who comes to our museums to have a safe and enjoyable visit.

• The hangars have ramped access.
• Due to the historic nature of our collection, Concorde, Comet and BAC 1-11 can only be boarded by using stairs.
• The site is wheelchair accessible and wheelchairs can be borrowed free of charge. 
• Adapted toilets are available.
• Assistance dogs are welcome in the museum buildings and on the outdoor site.

Our full access guide can be found on the AccessAble website.

Free entry for carers

Visitors with disabilities pay a concession for admission, with a carer accompanying for free.
