            Love this article, I need to send this to Air Canada for not accepting me on board and booking me at a later time because of my wheelchair. Beforehand I was advised to call the customer assist and customer assist line told me to buy a new ticket since im late in arriving but 48 hours before i called Air Canada already and checked in on line and nobody advised me of anything and was at the airport 1.5 hours early and just to hear that i cant board and yet our luggage was accpted
