"Frontier Airlines CEO Calls for Stricter Controls on Airport Wheelchair Service Abuse"

Frontier Airlines CEO Barry Biffle has called for stricter penalties to curb the abuse of airport wheelchair services, citing significant misuse that leads to increased costs and delays for those genuinely in need. This issue has been echoed by other industry leaders, who note that some travelers exploit the service to fast-track through airports. While there are legitimate reasons for varying wheelchair needs, the challenge remains in addressing abuse without penalizing those with invisible disabilities.
