Airport Ambassadors Escorts
Airport Ambassadors are available to assist inexperienced passengers, or some passengers with hidden disabilities, who may have concerns about the traveling experience. They can also meet arriving passengers at their gate and accompany them to the Landside Terminal. The Ambassador Escort service is free of charge. For more information contact info@flypittsburgh.com.
Ambassadors cannot assist passengers with any medical assistance needs or unaccompanied minors. Passengers requiring this type of assistance should request wheelchair service or other assistance directly through the airline when booking the flight.
