🤟 **September is Deaf Awareness Month**

At SATH, we believe that true inclusion means creating a world where every voice, every experience, and every form of communication is valued.

This month, we celebrate the rich culture, languages, achievements, and contributions of the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. But awareness alone is not enough. We must turn understanding into action—breaking down barriers and creating spaces where everyone can connect, participate, travel, and thrive.

**Inclusion is not about giving everyone the same experience. It is about ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience the world fully.**

Together, let’s build a more accessible and inclusive world—where no one is left out, left behind, or left unheard. 💙🤟

On this International Day of the Wheelchair, we celebrate not limitations, but liberation. A wheelchair is not a liability — it is a powerful tool of independence, mobility, and possibility. It opens doors to education, careers, friendships, adventure, and travel. At the Society for Accessible Tourism and Hospitality (SATH), we see every day how a wheelchair becomes a symbol of strength, resilience, and freedom to explore the world on one’s own terms. Accessibility is not charity — it is opportunity. And opportunity creates limitless journeys. ♿✨🧑‍🦽🧑‍🦼👩‍🦽👩‍🦼👨‍🦽👨‍🦼

New Rules!

Southwest Airlines’ new policy will affect plus-size travelers.
What are your thoughts on this? Please let us know.

Southwest Airlines will soon require travelers who don’t fit within the armrests of their seat to pay for an extra one in advance, part of a string of recent changes the carrier is making.
