American Airlines has reached a $50 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Transportation for violating laws protecting airline passengers with disabilities. The airline mishandled and damaged thousands of wheelchairs, resulting in injuries and undignified treatment. The Transportation Department aims to set a new standard of accountability for airlines to prevent these abuses. Disability-related grievances have been on the rise, prompting the establishment of the Airline Passengers with Disabilities Bill of Rights. American Airlines will pay a fine and invest in infrastructure to improve passengers' experience.
