Absolutely disgusting that should not only be a finable offence and compensation to the customer. The ground staff responsible should be dismissed for gross misconduct
Wheelchair users have been trying for ages to raise awareness about their wheelchairs being broken so often when they fly, and the devastating impact this has on them. @AmericanAir baggage handlers decided to give a demonstration of how much they enjoy breaking them 😡

Travelling by train through a darkened, snowbound Finland and my God this is easy with a wheelchair. No pre-booking assistance needed, you just roll right onto the train from the platform with everyone else. Simples.

Great to catch up with our (new but old(not age) ) aviation minister @CharlotteV I know she really gets the unsafe journey the disabled community has when flying. The Air4All system (finally) solves that & I shall keep her in the loop as we progress #WheelchAIRtravel

Airlines often flout the law, they know most of the @UK_CAA tools are blunt instruments. Accessibility issues with EU1107 are typically not enforced..!! Recommendations/Guidance doth butter no parsnips..!!
Come on @UK_CAA it’s your turn to intervene here, otherwise what is the point of being a passenger rights and aviation regulator? #wizzair #airlines #flights #flightcancellations #travel #flightdelays

5/6 What good can a law do if it's toothless? Comes September, the new Secretary for Transport must put an end to the dither and delay of the last 14 years and give the @UK_CAA powers to fine operators who let disabled people down. @transportgovuk @RishiSunak @trussliz

@SenDuckworth "We would never accept airlines breaking the legs of 1 in 65 passengers, and yet, that is essentially what is happening when 1 out of 65 wheelchairs are being broken by airlines.” .Can this ratio get any worse? @WCTravelOrg ...Hold my Beer !

John Morris says American Airlines has caused extensive damage to two wheelchairs costing $75,000, and he wants a "seat at the table" to bring about change.
