Hi Akua, My condolences for on the loss of your father. I worked with an airline for 10 years and yes you have rec'd great info here. Also, because you need to travel in a 'crunch time' as this, tell them when making yor reservation that you have a HARDSHIP and they will get you an immediate/discounted ticket and you will have 3 weeks to get them a letter (ask the funeral director and they will gladly give it to you as they know what it is) and you'll be refunded another 10% after your return. When you book a hotel, yes your can ask for a handicapped accessible room and sometimes they have hospital bed but you need to inquire. Ella
