  1. Sensationalist bullshit.

    Actual headline ‘man that can’t be accommodated on a flight, owing to the law, not allowed to break the law’.

    The other month, I drank 2 bottles of vodka and the police DISCRIMINATED against me by saying I couldn’t drive my OWN car?!?

  2. One of the guidelines when transporting people on aircraft is that they’re able to get in and out of their seat and use the toilet independently. If not, they would need a medical escort and a bigger capacity aircraft and class, for example BA, business or club Europe. EasyJet has none of those options. So really is for his safety and that of the crew, not to mention in an emergency situation. How do I know? I’ve worked in a sector where we transport sick individuals around the world.
    Also, you cannot travel with a urine bottle to use at your seat, that’s unhygienic.

  3. If he can’t walk to the toilet how would he get out of the plane in an emergency…

  4. More AI generated rage bait slop. Amazing that comic books like daily star still exist and adults actually read them.

  5. If you have special needs maybe do not take the absolute cheapest and unaccommodating options meant for in my opinion students and high functioning individuals

  6. Went to LA with a friend who was disabled, he couldnt go to the toilet we just had to give him a urinal and cover him them cuck it in the toilet.

  7. Certainly not appropriate to use a portable urinal in his seat ? Imagine the poor passenger sitting next to him ?

  8. As a disabled person myself, if I couldn’t walk to the bathroom under my own ability, I have ZERO business being on a commercial plane, that is what medical flights are for.. (to the posts saying he could use a portable urinal, ewwww fuck off, no way they can guarantee no spills!!) If he can’t get out the seat and evacuate in an emergency he is an actual danger to other passengers and they are absolutely right to refuse to transport him.. there are rules airlines need to obey, and I’m pretty certain this would be in one of them….
