Well, it was not in Grannies best interest. I believe that if the airlines can be compelled to honestly share the data, that data will show that ill elderly are booted off flights a a disproportionate rate. The data would, in my opinion, support a claim of age discrimination. As to your point regarding the elderly being at a higher health risk, if the airlines can prevent the elderly from flying, surely the insurance industry can deny them health care for the same reasons. You will 74 before you know it. Be careful, lest you find yourself hoisted on your own petard!
