My family is thinking of taking the River Runner from Kansas City to either Kirkwood or St. Louis for a long weekend this summer. I have a few things I would like to hear from folks in the know that could maybe help me with.
1. Our plans are to travel out of KC on Thursday morning and arrive back on Sunday afternoon. Is there a place to park the car at KC for that long, and at what cost?
2. My daughter is recovering from a stroke, and is able to get around with a cane, but for this trip we will need to take her wheelchair for when she gets tired. Will the wheelchair count as a piece of luggage?
3. Since there is no checked baggage at either KCY or STL, how much difficulty will there be to get the wheelchair on/off-board?
4. My three year old grandson will also be making the trip, similar to the wheelchair questions, will his car seat count as luggage?
5. I have given thought to getting my reservations at KCY (in advance) to make sure they are aware of the disability issues, rather than trying to do that on-line or over the phone. Good idea?
6. What about taking our lunch with us, good idea? One reason I ask is the mobility issue with my daughter.
7. Any thing else I should be thinking about?
