“Our goal is to create an airport experience that puts people first, and this Sensory Room is an important step in making SFO more accessible and less stressful for all travelers,” stated SFO Airport Director Ivar C. Satero in a information launch. “This space is designed to help neurodivergent passengers, and their families feel more comfortable, relaxed, and confident while traveling. I want to thank our team for making this vision a reality.”

To create the Sensory Room, SFO stated it collaborated with specialists from UCSF Youngsters’s Hospital and The Arc San Francisco, a company that advocates for individuals with mental and developmental disabilities. This new area builds on SFO’s earlier efforts, reminiscent of air journey rehearsals, to offer ongoing assist for neurodiverse vacationers.

Positioned after safety in Harvey Milk Terminal 1, the Sensory Room is open each day from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., and is accessible from all terminals via connecting walkways.
