        A passenger who travelled through Vancouver International Airport during the summer of 2022 says he almost lost his foot to an injury that turned septic, after he was unable to disembark from a British Airways flight for hours.

          Come on, Canada. You’re great with people of color and the LGBTQIA+ community. Do the same for us people with disabilities. (Yes, I know the States aren’t perfect.)

            It doesn’t make sense that they didn’t have an aisle wheelchair at the airport or on board that would work. I mean if it wasn’t an International Airport (IA) then maybe they wouldn’t have one, but it was an IA! I feel like someone dropped the ball here, like maybe they lent them all to airlines without tracking their on-hand stock, because the flight must of knew about him flying there.
