The "dress rehearsal" is an opportunity for children on the autism spectrum and their families to go through the motions of a typical airport visit to help alleviate the stress of flying.
"When this all started and I was asked if I wanted to volunteer, we were on board. We said of course, let's do it," said Rosemarie Hubbard, a Wings for Autism Volunteer whose son is on the spectrum. "He actually participates in the activities, but he also volunteers as well."
