E335 - How could the proposed changes to the Air Carrier Access Act help people with mobility issues

Have you ever thought about how difficult it would be to travel, especially on planes if you had a disability or were a plus sized person? The US Department of Transportation has proposed some rules that they want the airlines to follow that are centered around accessibility accommodations for disabled persons. Taylor Uster wrote an article explaining what these proposed rules are and how they would work. Taylor is the head of research and editor of the magazine called Access Spotlight that is found on the website Friendly Like Me. I also am joined by Elysia Everett who is Friendly Like Me’s co-founder and CEO to explain how significant a problem it is to travel as a plus sized person. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.
