Does a Delta/Comair Canadair CR9 use a jetway or airstairs at the gate?
http://www.jfk-airport.net/files/Images/… most likely you will be at a gate with the Jetway/ stairs. the best thing to do is to call the airline and ask. sounds stupid but they can give you a better answer. if worse comes to worse you can always get a wheel chair put her in there and maybe ask to board the plane ahead of time so you could help her up the stairs. usually smaller planes such as the CRJ-200 or even Regional prop planes is where you wouldn’t use a Jetway but I’m 90% postive you will have a jetway…
That’s the CRJ-900, which is actually one of the larger regional jets. They use jetways most of the time, but it depends on the airport. Even if a jetway is not used, just let the gate agent know about your situation. There are elevators down to the ramp (tarmac) and a portable ramp that can be wheeled up to the aircraft door.
