AirEndex exists because the information travelers with disabilities, chronic illness, and plus size bodies need has always existed. It just was never in one place, never verified, and never written for us.
You have a flight coming up. You need to know whether the seatbelt extender will fit, whether the aisle armrest lifts, whether the lavatory door is wide enough, whether you need to book a second seat and what happens if you do.
So you search. You find Reddit threads from 2019, blog posts with no dates, airline policy pages buried under layers of legal disclaimers. Two hours later you have seven tabs open and you are not sure which information is current.
That is the problem AirEndex was built to solve.
AirEndex is the first accessibility air travel database built specifically for travelers who need more than a standard seat review. Customer of size policies with actual booking instructions. Seat dimensions by aircraft type, not just by airline. Gate Guide airport profiles with real walking distances and accessibility service locations.
Every entry is researched, verified with a date stamp, and written for travelers who have been burned by bad information before. Every entry is researched, verified with a date stamp, and written for travelers who have been burned by bad information before.
Built for plus size travelers, disabled travelers, travelers with chronic illness, and anyone who has ever needed a real answer before booking a flight.
The principles behind every entry in the database
"I did not set out to build a database. I set out to find information I could not find anywhere else. Eventually I realized the only way to have what I needed was to build it myself."
Courtney Donovan is the founder of AirEndex and the creator behind Queens & Carryons Club, a travel community built around honest, practical travel content for travelers who have been underserved by the mainstream travel industry.
AirEndex started as a personal research project. The same questions kept coming up in the Queens & Carryons community. What is the actual customer of size policy at this airline? Which seats have movable armrests? Is the accessible lavatory near the front or the back? Is the seatbelt extender request humiliating or straightforward at this carrier?
The answers existed but they were scattered, inconsistent, and almost always written for a traveler who did not share our experience. AirEndex is the resource that should have existed years ago. It is being built now because the community that needs it is ready for it, and because the travel industry has had long enough to get it right on its own.
Queens & Carryons Club content lives at @queensandcarryons. AirEndex is a separate product and a separate mission, built to outlast any single platform and serve any traveler who needs real answers before they fly.
The database is live. Every answer is verified.
