Posted on by

Self-diagnosed dyslexics are now allowed to skip airport queues and are handed free VIP lounge entry.

Travellers with “hidden disabilities”, a term which encompasses a number of mental health conditions like ADHD and autism, can exploit a long list of luxury privileges without medical proof.

Holidaymakers taking advantage of the extra travel perks can enjoy a life of luxury in the airport lounges, sipping on free champagne while being offered an array of culinary delights, including hot food buffets and fruit platters.

They can also receive priority boarding as well as free seat collection, all with a simple wave of a sunflower lanyard.

What is Dyslexia?

Posted on by

The animated short film What is Dyslexia?, directed by Kyra Bartley, kicks off with a little girl named Lola (Hope Day) who is in a library by herself while her parents are having a serious conversation with a teacher or principal. She decides to do a Google search for “what is dyslexia?” As with kids who do the search in real life, the terrifying words “disability” and “lifelong learning disorder” are the first things that she sees.

Her world crumbles, and giant letters fall as she descends down a black hole. The abstract artwork of the film captures the beauty despite the sadness of the search results. Jeremy Irons appears as “The Inventor,” explaining that dyslexic thinkers have brains that work a bit differently, and some of them create masterpieces or become great storytellers.

The director (Liv Tyler) also imparts wisdom. Next thing you know, Lola is knocking out legendary boxer Muhammad Ali (Jaalen Best) while the crowd chants her name.
