Helen Taylor claims she was deemed unfit to fly due to her diabetes
Helen Taylor, from Chester-le-Street, County Durham, said she was looking forward to a short break with her husband, David. However, what should have been an ideal journey quickly turned into a nightmare when cabin crew said she was unfit to fly.
"The air stewardess saw and asked, 'Are you alright?' and I said, 'I am perfectly fine, I had just eaten after not eating all day and I have Type 2 diabetes, so it is just my blood sugars releveling. All I need is to sit down and have a drink of water and I will be perfectly fine.' "I said, 'I have diabetes Type 2 and I take [medication] for it.' She asked my husband if it happens often and he said, 'From time to time when she hasn't eaten every few hours. It is perfectly normal.'
Helen, who works as a health and social care teacher, questioned why no medical or mobility assistance was provided when getting off the aircraft if she was "unfit to fly".
