Then from the comments:

Quote:
Thanks Jeff for this article:

I am a paraplegic and i have witnessed this myself - I am a victim of this by the staff of fly540 on 15th December 2013.

The lady at the check-in counter just said '' we do not take disabled people '' i was shocked

I had to pay 2000/= to a ground staff to assist me board the flight after pleading at the check-in counter.

Action needs to be taken immediately

SHAME ON FLY540

Unbelievable! Shame on them

Problems can get out of proportion, and not only in the wee small hours. Don't let the problems eclipse the Master. Let the Master eclipse the problems.

Why should it be on the terms to start with? In this century and there are businesses that think that way? That is a shame. What would they do if one of their directors became disabled? Would he/she be stopped from flying them?

Official Response on Face Book Page (Extracts)

Due to the type of our planes, we cannot provide cover for immobile or lift-on/off passengers.

The aircraft in use are not fitted with the special equipment needed for these situations and, as a result, our insurance does not provide cover against any issues that might arise through our employees physically carrying a passenger.

Morally they lose out big time. Unfortunately for them, that might also impact business negatively.

Otherwise legally they may get away with it.

so they sell the tickets to everybody but do not have the services to cater for different needs of the passengers?

do they advice potential passengers of their limitations at the point of sale?
