The airlines are terrible.
But $30,000 for a replacement? If the loaner did her in it sounds like she was too fragile to risk damage to her custom chair through air travel. Or should have had some sort of super-duper insurance for an immediate, wherever you are, custom replacement, which would have been exorbitant if even possible.

Maybe, Did they already have contractual obligations regarding personal property or was she warned that things can break?
Those are important questions.
I think air travel has serious problems with it to begin with. Mostly we’ve grown to comfortable with the idea of a flying bus.

Seems very reasonable to me, of course we’ve spent >$200,000 on medical issues this year.
I believe we all agree that most, if not all, airlines don’t give a damn.

My mom had one. Took several visits to the provider for measurements and fitting and stuff. All told, about a month or two.

15 years ago my mom's was 24000, yet you could find a used one (obviously not custom-fitted yet) for 4000.

Did this “impassioned activist” have no following? Does an activist have no knowledge of Go Fund Me?
This stinks of lawsuit lawyer pretrial “news release “.
