Best in the biz

OAG has given its award for best airline for people traveling with a disability to American Airlines. The award, new this year, was based on a survey of OAG customers. "Too often when traveling, those with a disability can find things more difficult than able-bodied passengers, which should not be the case," said Eddie Bell, chairman of OAG. "From the comments that came in via the survey it is clear how much people value the extra care and consideration that is shown by certain airlines. American Airlines is highly regarded for making disabled travelers feel comfortable and respected."
