Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for route planning and management with a drone. Aspects include receiving a destination for an individual and determining multiple routes between a position of the individual and the destination. Aspects further include deploying the drone to determine safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes and determining a preferred route from the multiple routes based on the safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes.

1. A method for route planning and management with a drone, the method comprising: receiving a destination for an individual;determining, by a processor, multiple routes between a position of the individual and the destination;deploying the drone to determine one or more of safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes; anddetermining, by the processor, a preferred route from the multiple routes based on the safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes, wherein the drone is configured to attach to one of the individual and a mobility device of the individual. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the determination of the preferred route is further based on a profile of the individual that includes medical information of the individual. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein determining the one or more of safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes includes the drone scouting for a preferred entry to a building given based on the profile of the individual. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein a determination to deploy the drone is automatic and is based on an estimate of likely risk along the multiple routes. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the safety and accessibility risks include one or more of: steps, holes, snow, ice, cracks in sidewalks, crowds, fire, smoke, and sun glare. 6. A computer program product for route planning and management with a drone, the computer program product comprising: a non-transitory storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit for performing a method comprising:receiving a destination for an individual;determining multiple routes between a position of the individual and the destination;deploying the drone to determine one or more of safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes; anddetermining a preferred route from the multiple routes based on the safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes, wherein the drone is configured to attach to one of the individual and a mobility device of the individual. 7. The computer program product of claim 6, wherein the determination of the preferred route is further based on a profile of the individual that includes medical information of the individual. 8. The computer program product of claim 7, wherein determining the one or more of safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes includes the drone scouting for a preferred entry to a building given based on the profile of the individual. 9. The computer program product of claim 6, wherein a determination to deploy the drone is automatic and is based on an estimate of likely risk along the multiple routes. 10. The computer program product of claim 6, wherein the safety and accessibility risks include one or more of: steps, holes, snow, ice, cracks in sidewalks, crowds, fire, smoke, and sun glare. 11. A system for route planning and management with a drone, comprising: a mobile device having processor in communication with the drone, the processor configured to:receive a destination for an individual;determine multiple routes between a position of the individual and the destination;deploy the drone to determine one or more of safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes; anddetermine a preferred route from the multiple routes based on the safety and accessibility risks associated with the multiple routes, wherein the drone is configured to attach to one of the individual and a mobility device of the individual. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the determination of the preferred route is further based on a profile of the individual that includes medical information of the individual. 13. The system of claim 11, wherein a determination to deploy the drone is automatic and is based on an estimate of likely risk along the multiple routes. 14. The system of claim 11, wherein the safety and accessibility risks include one or more of: steps, holes, snow, ice, cracks in sidewalks, crowds, fire, smoke, and sun glare.
