As a wheelchair user who has the misfortune of needing to fly quite often: my go-to method when this happens (which is about 30% of the time) is to refuse to leave. That way, a nice bunch of burly security officers come and lift me off, saving me the days of pain that dragging myself on the floor causes.

It's awesome living in a society that doesn't give a shit.

Honestly I would love them to try, I could use some extra cash.

Im not usually one to suggest lawsuits, but baby would this be textbook discrimination

also probably breach of contract (you paid for someone to get you a wheelchair which didnt happen)
