Five difficulties wheelchair users face when flying by plane

A disabled man and his mother were kicked off a Ryanair flight last week after staff “couldn’t fold his wheelchair”.Gary Dunne, who has mobility problems and is deaf, and 81-year-old Kathleen from the Wirral, Merseyside, were then rebooked on a second flight the next day – only to be asked to leave once again.Humiliatingly, the pilot then announced over the tannoy that the delay was due to “the lady with the wheelchair”.
