But for your own good, sometimes it would be required. if you are not certain if you would fit into a chair, call emergency center and ask them that question. If it is possible that seat will be to little, you might buy another ticket next to the first one, plenty of the time the price should be smaller.

Flying attendant should help you to get on board the airplane with no problem, they would take care of your vehicle on the time of your flight, you don't need take any guider with you.
