Wheel chair passenger sat in after deplaning |
I just got a report from Ret. Superintend of Police Mrs. Ionie Ramsay-Nelson who has serious back challenges, and who travelled on Caribbean Airlines recently. She complained to Bark Di Trute about the state of the wheel chair which she had to sit on when she arrived at the Norman Manley International Airport. The covering of the chair was tattered and the chair was no longer fit for human beings to use.
Mrs. Ramsay-Nelson noted that air fares are very expensive and customers should be treated better. She wondered if the same chairs would be used for tourists arriving in Montego bay. Mrs. Ramsay-Nelson who has served in the public sector with distinction for many years, is disgusted with how passengers on Caribbean Airlines are treated.Still showing her indomitable spirit, she volunteered to get a truck to take the Airline's wheel chairs to Riverton City to have them dumped. She said also that she is sure that 'Food For The Poor' would be willing to donate some wheel chairs to Caribbean Airlines!
Note:
Mrs. Ionie Ramsay OD, JP is the first female motor cyclist in the Jamaica Constabulary Force. She has been a strong supporter of my radio programmes SpotOn, and during my major illness a few years ago, gave me very strong support. A no nonsense yet caring and loving Jamaican woman.
Please correct me her but the wheel chairs are the property o guardsman security and are operated by the guards at the Norman Manley airport.
ReplyDeleteIt does not matter who owns these chairs. Persons pay the airlines for a service which includes special services. The airlines must fix the problem. The few comments on this blogs could indicate that travelers do not care.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your focus on this issue.
ReplyDeleteThis is a disgrace.
The main users of this service and this equipment is one of the most loyal of all the travel groups supporting these airlines, senior citizens.
Both the airlines and the airport and airport management should be ashamed of this situation.
keep applying the pressure Vernon
