Guess What’s Behind that Door?

Something big (and quiet) is coming to Pittsburgh International Airport next week.

After months of preparation and construction, as well as input from community members, the airport will unveil a world-class sensory-friendly space for travelers with autism and other neurodevelopmental challenges.

The roughly 1,500-square-foot room features private and soundproof spaces with adjustable lighting, various calming activities and comfortable seating, a sensory-friendly restroom and a realistic airplane cabin experience area.

Stay tuned for more on this industry-leading airport amenity, with more stories, photos and videos to come next Tuesday!
