The disabled: hire our Hong Kong Express Airways
Encounter refusing hire experiences not only with full. Another persons with disabilities live and work in Beijing surging Miss Cheng told journalists, also because there are no independent ability to walk unaccompanied had been juneyao airlines hire. Knight Island SFC Chairman Xiao gang in crater
Miss Cheng introduces himself over the years has always been independent of flying, many years ago aboard the juneyao airlines experience she recalled. Many years ago, she and another girl in a wheelchair together from Beijing for Sanya, Midway stop in Shanghai, have to transfer to juneyao Airlines flights. Crew members told them, because they don't have the ability to walk independently, without adult companionship, not let them Board. Prior to that, they flew from Beijing to Shanghai to take the Spring Airlines does not refuse due to above reasons.
According to Miss Chen introduced, although you can apply to the airline reservation method independent of flying, but each time the applicant apply to the local airline designated locations. This is not convenient for the disabled, more trouble. In General, little Miss Chen will choose the airport wheelchair as a transitional nearly each airport can be effected in the cabin of the young wheelchair available, as long as the gate and put on a small chair, to sit down and then the small wheelchair returned to the airport and their wheelchairs checked. "On my computer for a few hours, we can not go to the bathroom, do not leave the seat. "

Hosted a special on airline passengers, especially wheelchair and stretcher passengers, the civil aviation authority required by the number of such passengers on each flight, and inform the airline in advance.
In this regard, industry insiders say, primarily taking into account the flight safety, if an emergency, flight attendants over a limited number, not to the excessive number of wheelchairs or stretchers to provide enough help, "specific provisions of each airline will be slightly different, but this is not the refusal or discrimination, but because of security concerns.
