    This was also great for my daughter: http://mag-umbraco-media-live.s3.amazonaws.com/1009/awarenessplusbookletplust2.pdf It's aimed at children on the autism spectrum but she loved it anyway and enjoyed filling it in and ticking off boxes etc and it passed a bit of time too.

    I just wanted to add my thanks for that -- it's such an awesome guide, and not just for kids!

    We flew from T2 last year and ate at Frankie & Bennys and found it excellent- our waitress was really helpful and the service was quick and not rushed- yes probably a bit over priced but service and quality was high

    It can get mentally busy - but it depends on the day and time.

    It is next to gate 213 in departures after security. You can always have a walk down there (its a pretty wide corridor) and if its too busy have a walk back.

    And as an aside, if your child has a diagnosis on the ASD, call your airline and tell them you want special assistance. You must do this ASAP so it can be arranged, but it means no queueing. You get fast tracked through security, and they can also provide a quiet room if it all goes baps up!


    Just wanted to say thanks again, I've phoned up and the forms are coming for us to have special wristbands to whizz him through quickly - I was really worried about the queues, he can't even tolerate a supermarket most of the time and I didn't want to give him his emergency meds before a flight

    A lot of people don't know about it, but everyone is so accomodating! I have a disability (physical) and they are usually great.

    If you're planning on a particular place to eat, you can usually show the wristband and get priority.
