Support Your Customers by Making Transport Information Accessible Online
Transport websites receive millions of visitors every day from all over the world, many of whom have a disability, or don’t speak English as a first language. The consumer spending power of people with disabilities and their families is a massive £2.25 trillion worldwide.
53% of disabled travelers need help with the booking process. Providing assistive technology on your transport website will remove online barriers enabling customers to book their journey hassle-free, and stay up to date with changes and delays.

Why you Should Provide Online Support in the Transport Sector
Increased Revenue
Adults with disabilities spend an estimated $17.3 billion on travel every year. If accessibility barriers were eliminated travellers would increase their budget by up to 34%.
Overcome Language Barriers
On-page translation and text-to-speech options make websites accessible for tourists who don’t speak or read in English as a first language.
Excel in Hospitality
Customer service is paramount in the travel and transport industry. Website accessibility tools demonstrate commitment to exceptional service at every customer contact point.
