    Yeah, inget that, but asking an airline to give care on that level does seem a bit out of the ordinary to say the least.

    The guy likely got assigned a handler who likely had no idea how bad this guy was already, and left for reasons like “had to go to the bathroom” or something and boom, this happens

    I think the family of this man should have arranged for professional care or at the least a family member to travel with him

      The airline is required to accommodate passengers that need to be escorted. If they were unable to do so for whatever reason, someone needed to be notified. If you have to escort someone and for whatever reason have an emergency and cannot do it, you need to find someone who can or at least notify the expectant family. The article says he was not provided any assistance at all though, so that is moot regardless. Based on the article they didn’t even try to help him. I don’t know why people are projecting a situation that didn’t happen when the article alleges something else.
