Cork Airport has installed a sensory pod to provide a calm space for passengers with hidden disabilities.
The pod features padded walls, ambient lighting, mirrors, and a bubble tube, aiming to prevent and manage sensory overload events.
Using the sensory pod has been proven to reduce the frequency and severity of disruptions caused by stress or anxiety.
Passengers can reserve the sensory pod through the passenger mobility services provider at Cork Airport, along with other initiatives like sunflower lanyards and children’s stories to help cope with new situations.
