Dulles International will host a “dress rehearsal” from ticket counter to plane that is designed to provide a mock -- yet realistic -- opportunity to experience travel through the airport before their actual trip. The event is for individuals with special needs and their families and is held in partnership with The Arc of Northern Virginia, United Airlines and the Transportation Security Administration. Families will able to practice entering the airport, navigating the terminal, getting boarding passes at the ticket counter, checking bags, passing through TSA security screening and boarding an aircraft at a gate.

Registration is closed. Thanks to everyone planning to volunteer and attend.

Note: Participation is free of charge, and participants do not have to be affiliated with The Arc of Northern Virginia.
