The Aviation Enforcement Office has issued a Frequently Asked 
Questions
(FAQ) document concerning the air travel of people with 
disabilities under
the amended Air Carrier Access Act regulation which is now in 
effect.  It's
20 pages in length, so I won't post here.  You can access the FAQ 
at

"The purpose of the FAQ is to help airlines that provide service 
to
passengers with disabilities assist those passengers in 
accordance with law
and to offer air travelers with disabilities information about 
their rights
under the ACAA and 14 CFR

Part 382 (Part 382).  The FAQ also contains suggested practices 
for carriers
to use on a voluntary basis to implement Part 382," according to 
Blane A.
Workie, Deputy Assistant General Counsel, Office of Aviation 
Enforcement and
Proceedings, U.S.  Department of Transportation.
