You take vacation to relax. But for some, it begins with chaos at the airport. Check your bags. Wait in line. Hurry - shoes off, arms up, step back, shoes on. Where's my wallet? It's a challenge for anyone. Now imagine if you have a child with autism. The thought of flying anywhere on vacation can be unnerving.

The test run includes checking in, passing through security, boarding the plane, even a simulated takeoff! Producer Randy Eng has a glimpse of this popular program.
