The Goodness of America
Are We There Yet?
When her autistic child was flying solo from Las Vegas to Portland, Alex Bjornson was concerned for her son’s safety and mental well-being. She was later thrilled and grateful to learn that he befriended a passenger who sat beside him on the plane and that he had a wonderful trip.
Seven-year-old Landon was flying to Portland to visit his father on June 27, and his mother, Alex, was concerned because Landon has high-functioning autism. She decided to write a note for Landon to hand to whomever he sat beside on the plane in the hopes of explaining his condition and preparing the passenger for what to expect.
