Airline passenger restrictions sough by Rex

The Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission has received an application from Regional express airlines (Rex) requesting exemption from sections 23 and 24 of the Disability Discrimination Act so far as to permit Rex placing certain restrictions and requirements on the carriage of passengers with specific disabilities on its SAAB aircraft.

Rex argue that these restrictions are justified and in doing so have clarified passengers who will need companions to travel. This is open for comment until 5 December 2007.

More information about the restrictions proposed by Rex is available on the HREOC website.
