"It's the system that's the problem". How airlines are failing people with disability
COVID closed off air travel for most Australians but you could argue that for people with disability, it's never really been open. From wheelchair user limits, to inconsistent policies and inaccessible public transport, the disability community is increasingly isolated and unable to participate in society. We explore how people with disability feel about flying and some of the ways airlines discriminate against people with disability.
Kurt Fearnley is a proud person with a disability and Sarah Shands is a mum of a child with a disability. Together they talk with people with disability and some key decision-makers about what life is really like and what we're doing to fix any issues. The challenges, the discrimination, the triumphs — and everything in between.
