The thing is, who gets the penalty? When I flew last week, I asked one of the CSA,s who is responsible for the wheelchairs. She told me the airport owns the wheelchairs, and they have to put in a request (usually just a phone or radio call) to the airport porters for a wheelchair.

So if there aren't enough to go around, who gets in trouble? The carrier or the airport?
