EasyJet fined ₹44L for refusing disabled passenger onboard
A court in France on Thursday fined British airline easyJet €60,000 (nearly ₹44 lakh) for refusing to allow a differently-abled passenger onboard, citing security reasons. The court was told that easyJet refused 55-year-old Joseph Etcheveste, who is partially paralysed, as he was "unaccompanied." In 2015, easyJet was fined €70,000 for not allowing three differently-abled passengers to board.
