A former Paralympian has become the latest traveller with a disability to find herself in an uncomfortable situation due to the inaction of a Canadian airline.

Sarah Morris-Probert was flying WestJet from Cabo San Lucas home to Kelowna, but when she went to board the flight there was no way for her to get up safely using her wheelchair.

Morris-Probert, who is the president of BC Adaptive Snowsports, said on the way to Cabo she asked if there was going to be an air bridge and they were not sure. Luckily, there was an air bridge upon arrival so she was fine, she said.
