🙏 @Channel4 for highlighting the specific challenges & frustrations for disabled passengers. So important that these issues are raised & addressed.
@The_WFA our athletes will travel by air to tournaments all over the world - horrified to see what they may have to endure.
As part of a @Channel4 documentary, disability advocate Sophie Morgan talks about her inspiration to launch ‘Rights on Flights’ and campaigns for airlines to be held accountable for poor treatment of disabled passengers.
