Passenger crawls off plane after demand she pay for wheelchair

An Australian passenger on a Jetstar flight to Thailand has been left humiliated after she was forced to crawl off the plane, claiming staff wouldn’t get her a wheelchair unless she paid extra.

Natalie Curtis, from Queensland, said she was offered a special wheelchair that fits in plane aisles when boarding her flight from Singapore to Bangkok.

But when Ms Curtis landed in Bangkok and required the same service, she claims she was told she would need to pay if she wanted to be wheeled off the plane.
