Actually the first time this happened in 2007, I ended up calling the ADA and
they told me that the airline had a right to do an internal investigation
before I could do anything else. So, I tried another airline.....what a joke.
They actually brought a wheelchair for me twice. What part of sighted guide
did they not understand. Poor Copper. They refused to let me to take him out
to relieve himself between flights and I had a two and a half hour layover. I
should have done more but I was so discusted.
