Heck, by that measure, half of the people who post here (the purported airline employees) should themselves be receiving airline assistance....jimntx said:The problem lies in the fact that she might be fine one day and totally out of touch the next. Under no circumstances would I permit her to travel alone because I don't know today that she will be ok tomorrow.
I don't think that you should compare a 2year old to an Alzheimer patient.Fly said:How dare these families put their loved ones on an airplane without an escort. Even UM's are capable of telling us their names, ages, and where they live. These UM's know where they go to school and who is picking them up at their destination. The UM's are capable of using the restrooms by themselves, order a coke, and find the channel for the inflight movie. All these things seem quite simple but are not "simple" for someone with Alzheimer's disease. There is an age requirement for UM's and seeing that many people with this horrible disease are unable to accomplish any of the above things, there should be a restriction, or an outright refusal, by the airlines to allow them onboard without a proper escort. Would they allow a 2 year old to fly by himself? Of course not! Same thing.
