Air Canada is Hostile to Disabled People
<p>I’ve written about the challenges disabled people face when traveling by air numerous times, but these horror stories never seem to stop coming. Every week seems to bring a new case of disabled people having their equipment lost or destroyed, being injured, or just being violated by the industry. These problems plague the entire airline industry, but they seem to predictably involve one of two airlines every time: United or Air Canada.</p>
<p>Air Canada is well known for breaking wheelchairs, but they’ve also been criticized for mistreating disabled people in other ways. From humiliating disabled people to straight up putting their chairs on the wrong plane, it’s gotten to the point where a Twitter thread calling them out has six different stories over the course of a year. And these are just the stories that made headlines and that this lawyer was aware of. Other users added their own experiences in the replies.</p>
