We aim for this.
"I think they should take care of the ones that are in wheelchairs first," -- www.wtsp.com/news/local/article/228583/8/Complaints-against-airlines-by-disabled-passengers-rise

No more handicapped-passengers left behind.
"They left me sitting in the lobby for the longest time, before they brought me down to the gate," Virginia Dezon, a handicapped-passenger with wheelchair. -- Imagine if all passengers could experience the same joy in flying.
