Comment on Passengers in wheelchairs can't use most airplane washrooms. That could change

The United agreement was prompted by an incident in which a passenger died after her custom wheelchair was damaged during a cross-country flight.
Jesus, I already hated United for breaking my reinforced toolbox and fucking me over on four recent flights, but this takes the cake. I avoid them whenever possible now.

I looked into it, and apparently she spent months fighting with them to replace her wheelchair. In the meantime, she developed sores from being in a generic wheelchair, and she ended up needing to emergency surgeries, and either passed away due to complications, or due to the sores directly.
