A tourist information center specializing in assisting elderly and disabled guests opened at Fukuoka Airport on November 15. Located next near the north arrival gate of the airport’s domestic terminal, the new visitor center welcomes guests who want to find hotels and restaurants with accessibility. They also rent wheelchairs. The NPO operating the service is based in Okinawa and plans to make an English, Chinese, and Korean website to meet international demands. Source: BFN
